This is the sort of thing I do.  The problem I have is that the
path for g++ includes is set in the gcc configuration (the option for
configure is --gxx-include-dir), while the libg++ compilation, which
actually installs the files, has no way of changing where they go.
I haven't looked at the problem with egcs, which I have not yet
installed in a permanent location, since it hasn't really had a
release yet, just the snapshots.
