Hmm, this sounds a lot like the problems I was having when I tried to
upgrade my RH 4.2 (4.0?) system to egcs/glibc2*.  I believe my solution
was to make sure all my C++ linking was done using g++ rather that gcc
as g++ got the libs right while gcc didn't.

* That setup got nuked and is now RH 5.1. 


BTW, where can I get recent binutils RPMs?  Is rawhide.redhat.com
mirrored anywhere (I can't get it recently)?
