This shows that /usr/lib/libstdc++.so doesn't use symvers.

This shows that /opt/gcc-4.6.0/lib/libstdc++.so does use symvers.

Therefore they are not compatible.

If you compile with gcc 4.6 you must ensure the library in /opt is
found.  I suspect the wrong libstdc++.so is being found at link time.

Another alternative would be to rebuild gcc 4.6 without symbol
versioning enabled so that you get compatibility with the lib from gcc
4.5
