The g++ failures are due to a bug in the testing harness; it's not
arranging for the test programs to find the freshly built shared C++
libs, instead they pick up whatever shared versions of the C++ libs
it can find in the standard locations on your system.

We really need someone to fix this correctly; the right way to do this
is to have the _testing framework_ pass args to the linker so that tests
have a path to the shared libraries they reference.
