--------
Bug report for Octave 2.0.9 configured for alpha-unknown-linux-gnu

Description:
-----------

I was unable to get fortran working on RH4.2, so I tried RH5.0.

Now Octave dumps core directly after startup, even after erasing the 
-lgcc and -lc flags from the CXXLIBS definition.

I mainly use the octave libraries. Linking programs (that worked on a 
SuSE441 PC) against the octave libraries with including -lc and lgcc results 
in immediated coredumps. Without including -lc and lgcc I get the following
messages:

g++ -o my_prog.o -static -g -Wall  -L/usr/local/lib -loctave -L/usr/local/lib -lcruft -lf2c -lm 
/usr/lib/libc.a(iofclose.o): In function `_IO_fclose':
/usr/src/bs/BUILD/glibc-2.0.5/libio/iofclose.c:33: multiple definition of `_IO_fclose'
/usr/lib/libstdc++.a(iofclose.o):/usr/src/bs/BUILD/libg++-2.7.2/libio/iofclose.c:33: first defined here
ld: Warning: size of symbol `_IO_fclose' changed from 192 to 396 in iofclose.o
/usr/lib/libc.a(iofflush.o): In function `_IO_fflush':
/usr/src/bs/BUILD/glibc-2.0.5/libio/iofflush.c:31: multiple definition of `_IO_fflush'
/usr/lib/libstdc++.a(iofflush.o):/usr/src/bs/BUILD/libg++-2.7.2/libio/iofflush.c:30: first defined here
....

So it seems that there is still a conflict between libstdc++ and libg++. 

P.S. the OSF4.0 binary works well, except that it does not find(?) xv. 
Can this be configured? Unfortunately, I need the libraries, so running 
the binary does not help me too much.
