The issue here is the C++ library. The compilers should generate binary-compatible code, but the programs will probably be linked against different C++ libraries. Have a look at /usr/lib/libstdc++.so on your old system: it's a symbolic link to a library with a version name. Now have a look at /usr/lib/libstdc++.so on the new system. Andrew.
