Don't know why you are mentioning librt, gcc-c++ nor libstdc++ don't have a dependency on librt, either rpm or DT_NEEDED. You have to try hard to avoid libstdc++, that is what you get by default, one needs to use -nostdinc, link with gcc instead of g++, usually disable rtti/exceptions etc. or link with -lsupc++ (which is in libstdc++-devel anyway). Compared to that, most of the C++ programs don't need libatomic, most of them don't need libitm, etc. So, why force it upon everybody when only 0.05% will need it?
