Can anyone help me figure out how to build libg++.a on a DECstation 5000
running DEC OSF/1 1.1?

I have successfully built and installed gcc 2.3.1 but it did not include
libg++.a (why not?).

I got a copy of libg++-2.2 but the configure program does not seem to like
"decstation-osf1" as a host type.

I tried "decstation" as a host type. configure swallowed that but "make all"
failed with this error:

Next, I edited config/mh-decstation to specify the gcc compiler instead of cc.
THe "make all" got a lot further this time but eventually it failed with
these errors:

Now I'm really stumped.
