It looks to me like libtool should be fixed to handle this case.
After all, if libtool is supposed to make other systems behave in a
GNU-ish way, then this is something it should take care of.

Another option would be to conditionalize the definition of SUBDIRS in
libstdc++-v3/Makefile.am to not even include libio when
GLIBCPP_NEED_LIBIO and GLIBCPP_NEED_WLIBIO are turned off.  I don't
know if automake handles that, though.

Alexandre, would you mind helping Robert with this?

Thanks,
