I just found out that I have to install libg++ separately.  Shouldn't it be
part of the gcc/g++ distribution?
Anyway, when I did so, I found that 
/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-sunos4.1.2/2.3.2/include/limits.h
was faulty, in that it contains:
    #include <syslimits.h>
and there is no such file on the Sparcstation (as far as I can find).
This was added as part of the installation process.
There is a /usr/include/sys/limits.h, and the original /usr/include/limits.h
is a link to it.
Curiously, there is no
/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-sunos4.1.2/2.3.2/include/sys/limits.h

I created a dummy syslimits.h, and libg++ compiled.
