My operator error. The makefile was pointing to libraries built from a previous
failed attempt, and after successfully cross-building them in a different
location, I forgot to update the makefile.

A large amount of software has been built for this embedded PowerPC application
using the same set of tools without any libstdc++ compatibility issues, so I'm
fairly confident the problem lies elsewhere, though I don't have a clue where,
and can't afford any more time spent on this approach.
