Is your program definitely using new libstdc++.so from the GCC 4.6.0 you installed yourself, rather than the system's default libstdc++.so? Did you build GCC 4.6.0 with --enable-fully-dynamic-string in the configure options? I believe that is necessary on Snow Leopard, because the system libraries are built that way.
