Your setup is kind of old. Please get binutils 2.9.1.0.15/2.9.1.0.16
and libc 5.4.46. Otherwise, many c++ tests won't pass. If you still
have problems after that, I will look into it.

BTW, I no longer have libc 5 machines. But I will cross-compile from
glibc 2 to libc 5. I don't expect there should be major differences
between the test results.
