I'd recommend porting your application to a newer system.  If std.h is
your only problem, it should be trivial.

Using libg++ is overkill.  The old std.h is really just a combination of
<stdlib.h>, <string.h>, and possibly a few other standard headers.  In
most cases, simply replacing 

#include <std.h>

by references to stdlib.h, string.h and possibly unistd.h will result in
a correct program with all needed prototypes.

You should install libg++, that's available in the GCC infrastructure
ftp directory.  It's no longer part of GCC.

Compiling old source code

    Hello,

    I have to compile a source code. I hace compiled it with slackware
3.4 (a very old version), but the libraries and includes that i need
don't appear on later version or redhat.
    I need an include file called std.h (on libgxx.tgz package, only for
slackware 3.4 or before).
    I copied this include directly to my redhat 6.0 but i had several
problems with incorrect types ....

    How must i compile this source code?

    Thank you.

    Best regards and good Y2K.
