can't compile gcc-2.95.2 to produce libstdc++.so.2.8

[Peter Schram]

Hi,

I'm compiling my own Linux system from scratch, but I can't produce the
libstdc++.so.2.8 file. I want to run netscape but this fails with the error:

/usr/local/netscape/netscape: error in loading shared libraries:
libstdc++.so.2.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

cd /
and
find -name libstdc++*
shows:
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/2.95.2/libstdc++.a
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/2.95.2/libstdc++.so
/usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-2.a.3
/usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3
/usr/lib/libstdc++-3-libc6.1-2-2.10.0.so
/usr/lib/libstdc++-3-libc6.1-2-2.10.0.a

So indeed no libstdc++.so.2.8

How can I compile gcc to make those files?

I tried:

./configure -with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/g++ --enable-shared
--enable-languages=c,c++
make bootstrap
make install

Any help would be very much appreciated.
