I'll believe you about the script, but I've never had any trouble. I
configure it with --enable-languages=c,c++ and there are no other c++
libraries present so I guess it must be using it. I can compile hello
world (and therefore the standard c++ library), but I must admit I havn't
really done much more.

For C on the other hand I am more certain it works - in particular I have
used it to build the SHLinux kernel (doesn't really test the run time
libraries though).
