I wouldn't say that this is a bug. The gcc-4.5.3 optional package only
works on a Haiku system built with that compiler. Installing it on a
mismatching Haiku is a user error.
Whether the status quo is desirable is another question. We include the
C++ runtime and STL in the base system, since it is needed by many base
system components. We might want to pull it out of both the base system
and the compiler package.
> Never mind cross-compilation, an even worse problem exists with a Haiku
host: when building Haiku on Haiku, libstdc++.so is apparently never being
built at all, the one found on the host system is instead copied to the
target. That's why the library is never being updated.
It's actually the compiler's libstdc++, which, when using the compiler
from the optional package, symlinks to the one in the system (which, given
that compiler and system should match, is correct). When cross-compiling
(from Haiku) -- which one has to do when desiring to build Haiku with a
different compiler -- the cross-compiled library will be used.
Closing as invalid (user error).
