There isn't (and shouldn't be) any real source-level dependency on libstdc++ when LLVM is turned off. However, the eval loop is now compiled as C++, and that may be adding some hidden dependency (exception handling code?). The final binary is linked with $(CXX), which adds an implicit -lstdc++, I think. Someone just has to go and track this down.
