BTW, although the following works, is there supposed to be a neater
syntax for calling foo::new() above?

foo* f = foo::operator new(sizeof(foo), 42);

---------------------------------------------

In gcc.c, contrary to the documentation, libg++ is still present in
the link_spec... which is fortunate as otherwise ___main is not found.
Less fortunate is that libg++.a requires ___builtin_saveregs from
gnulib, causing trouble since -lg++ appears after gnulib in the
link_spec list of arguments.  Moving -lg++ up the list works as a
quick kludge to get things to link.
