installation of libstdc++-2.90.6.1 on linux

[Marc Scherer <marc dot scherer at uni-tuebingen dot de>]

I am trying to install libstdc++-2.90.6.1 on a Linux PC with glibc 2.0.6
and gcc 2.95.2

The --prefix =/usr --enable-shared --enable-languages=c++ options were
given to configure

It compiles and passes all the tests

But when I try to compile the Hello world program

#include <iostream>

int main (void)
{
  cout << "Hello world\n";
  return(0);
}

I get the following error messages:
