Right. Hands were writing on their own. What I meant was to include a
(hopefully unmodified) copy of the libstdc++, and itegrate it in our
build process. This way, C++ apps have the runtime available, just like
C apps do. I'm downloading the lib as I write, and I'll look at what
it takes to compile it under Winelib, but I don't think it's fair to
subject C++ apps to a complicated build process just to get the runtime
going, which everybody assumes it's just 'there'.
