BTW, this isn't specific to the gcc-cpp packages: if you follow messages on these list, you'll see many complaints about broken links in alternatives (often one realizes this because of the error messages of makewhatis).If I execute the exact same thing as %postinstall in gcc-cpp, I get the symlink properly created.
Looks like something for an errata.
Also looks like someone beat me to it. Ah well.
Anyways, I've added this to the 9.0 errata since others may encounter the same problem.
I saw this myself with a number of packages after upgrading to 9.0 (e.g. postfix was screwed because it was missing the links) and I add to run manually the same update-alternatives that was in the %post script (of course postfix is just an example, I had to fix other packages manually but don't remember which ones now).
