Am I right to expect that the libstdc++-2.9 should have been located
by default in /usr/local/lib if the prefix variable had been set to
/usr/local ?

 Do you mean for example libstdc++.a ? If that is the case then if I
 want libstdc++.so.2.9.0 I would need to used the --enabled-shared option?

Thus I would be  better off to recompile egcs with the --enabled-shared
option if I understand correctly.

Thanks
