Sorry for the delay in responding. I have been trying a few things.

Not knowing anything about C++, I thought perhaps the problem was
because I didn't build libstc++ with gcc-2.95.3. So I've been trying
to build gcc-3.0.1 on Tru64, with great frustration.
I suspect the problem is the values for LD and LDDFLAGS in my
Config.pm. They invoke ld directly, and I *also* don't know what link
option I need to find the iostream library stubs. (As opposed to
having gcc sort this out itself.)

I did this eventually, and it sort of worked. I also had to take them
out of Xerces.C and Handler/PerlEntityResolverHandler.i. Most tests
passed, but all the Exception tests dumped core. I was reckless in
removing the cerr statements, so maybe I caused other problems. (Or
were they supposed to dump core?)
Thanks for your help. Sorry this isn't more positive.

David
