  Is it possible to bootstrap with the -fnew-abi option for g++, so
  that -fnew-abi is set by default for the resulting g++-compiler? No
  anser in the FAQ!

just change the relevant bits in gcc/cp/decl2.c (440):

int flag_new_abi;

to 

int flag_new_abi = 1;

There is a thread about using new flags on the libstdc++-v3 list:
search for "HOWTO-honor-std" in the archives of the mailing list.
