 Hello,
 
 does the submitter still consider the reported behavior a bug? If so, I  
 guess we can update the documentation... Thanks,

 Huh?
 
 I suspect g++/ld knew where the correct library was when they generated
 the executable, so why isn't that info in the executable for startup?  Why
 is it a good thing that it isn't?
 
 In other words, are you saying that I have to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH
 correctly before I start each executable....  (There are at least two ways
 to end up with different libraries that have the same base name+extension,
 so if the lookup is by file base name+extension, there's no way to have a
 single LD_LIBRARY_PATH that is always correct at startup.)

 The fix is really to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include your prefix:
 	/home/andy/GCC3.1/gcc-3.1-bin.
 
 This is because gcc now uses shared libraries and you did not
 install gcc where ld*.so find them.

If one configures, builds, and installs GCC/g++ as described by the gcc -v output attached, the executable doesn't know where to find libstdc++.so.4 (as a shared library) on startup.

configure, build, and install as noted.  Compile a c++ program.  Try to run it.

Can workaround by using -static
