How to install an ancient libstdc++ ?


I have this crufty LISP/C++ hybrid application that was compiled by whatever came with Red Hat Linux 5. When I run it on my debian box, it complains:

Warning: Loading sys:libngtr-planar.so failed with error:
libstdc++.so.2.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.
Warning: Loading sys:ik.so failed with error:
libstdc++.so.2.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.


The program dies a violent death shortly thereafter. There is no libstdc++.so.2.8 on any of my machines. Re-compiling this application from source is not possible.

What should I do? Should I download some ancient gcc version, and compile it from source? If so, which gcc versions correspond to which libstdc++ versions?

Thank you.
