The libstdc++-v3 configury needs to know about the target in order to implement locking and to interface with things like ctype. For a target like i386-elf, libstdc++-v3 knows about newlib--you would need to configure with --with-newlib, and you would need to walk through the steps required to build newlib and gcc in the right sequence. If not using newlib, you would need to hack the libstdc++-v3 configury system to tell it what to do. Yes, this should ideally be easier. No, I doubt that anybody is actually working on making it easier. Ian
