Due to messing around with various releases of gcc/egcs, I ended up
with several different gcc installations on my system. I was deleting what were
(I thought) the ones I wasn't using, and unfortunately deleted something required
for c++ compiliation. Since the C compiler was still working, I tried reinstalling
gcc, but his didn't fix the problem. My best guess in the current situation is
that some configuration file somewhere is telling the compiler where to look for
its libraries, and it's pointing at the broken installation instead of a working
one, since the error message the C++ compiler gives is

ld: cannot open crtbegin.o: No such file or directory

and this file exists in the reinstall I attempted. Does anyone know how to fix this,
or who I need to ask?
