i found the same error during libstc++ build on fc5 yesterday.

i forgot that you did mention this issue in previous post. thank you, again.

the buildroot svn was not updated. could you post this to them?

Hippo, this will be my first experience at posting anything to buildroot & busybox, but no problems, I'll muddle through OK.

Unfortunately I didn't get C++ working, mainly because I don't even understand how to connect up GDB debugger, in order to trace where things go wrong. I'm reasonably comfortable with GDB on the desktop, but remote debugging on the dev-board is a bit beyond me right now. The secondary excuse is I'm occupied with learning all about learning Linux device drivers (following Corbet's terrific book), so C++ doesn't seem quite so important at the moment. But it would be really cool to get C++ working, because it must be almost there I think.
