INCLUDE libg++ in your builds, please! (was: Re: Is egcs in CVS on 980630 19:00am PST broken?)

Same on sparc-sun-solaris2.* and sparc-sun-sunos4.1.4. Couldn't check
on hppa1.1-hp-hpux10.20 as egcs fails already while compiling two
files in libg++!

YES PLEASE! libg++ is an _excellent_ testbed and currently shows lots
of errors, while libio/libstdc++ don't. Please, everybody who's
actually building the c++ part of egcs (isn't this everybody:-), get
libg++ and include it in your builds. Otherwise, once egcs-1.1 is
released, I'm afraid we'll probably get reports for errors which could 
have been found and fixed already.
