This has been done. If you configure for v3, you'll get a libsupc++.a.
This additional support library is incorporated into libstdc++.{a,so},
so under normal hosted conditions you don't need to think about the
support library. But it is there nontheless.
Given that v2 is going away soon, I didn't think it worth the effort
to do the proper makefile hackery in that subdirectory.
