The libstdc++.la file produced by GCC has been broken ever since GCC 
started libtool.  It includes a bunch of junk it should not.  The most 
annoying junk refers to the GCC build directory so that applications 
linked with libstdc++.la attempt to use files from the GCC build 
directory rather than the installed versions.  If the GCC build 
directory is not removed after installing the compiler, very strange 
problems result.

I usually see the "duplicated" library warning for libstdc++.so when 
linking under Solaris.
