The problem is that we are using a closed-source library from Sony (for 
their robots AIBO, which run on a MIPS) and they don't support anything 
other than gcc 3.3.

If the library uses libstdc++, does it help if I compile it with 
-fabi-version? I have added that option to the environment of the build 
script.

OK, I'll add that patch to our patchset.
