I have successfully compiled and installed gcc 2.4.5, and I now wish
to install libg++ 2.3.1 (which is the most recent I have found).  I am
having trouble compiling it -- I get lots of conflicts between header
files (even using gcc 2.4.5 to compile, the nostdinc++ flag doesn't
stop all conflicts) and the compilation fails.

Has anybody done this successfully?  I configured gcc as i386--bsd, I'm
not quite sure how I should be running configure for libg++.  This is
under NetBSD, btw, totally standard except for the presence of gcc 2.4.5.

I would appreciate any help.

Mark.

library, n., a place with a large number of people, a slightly larger number
  of books, and a very small number of photocopiers, of which at any given
                   time at least 50% will be out of order.
