STL is the standard template library for C++.  It is free as part of the
headers for the GNU C++ compiler (part of gcc).  I believe the SGI
implementation is supplied, although I did not see any SGI licensing in the
headers (and the libraries of course).  You should not be missing them if
you have gcc installed.  Any chance you built everything static?

I just noticed that you have "libstdc++-devel" as the error.  You didn't try
to install a development version of gcc did you?
