I added my two missing objects, strdup() and strxfrm(), to libsupc++ and tried linking again. Unfortunately the result looks like I'm "sinking" even deeper and way beyond my skill level: /bin/ld: Undefined symbols: __GLOBAL__D__Z16check_compatibleRK11symbol_infoS1_b __GLOBAL__D__ZN9__gnu_cxx4ropeIcSaIcEE10_S_min_lenE __GLOBAL__D__ZNKSt9basic_iosIcSt11char_traitsIcEE7rdstateEv __GLOBAL__I__Z16check_compatibleRK11symbol_infoS1_b __GLOBAL__I__ZN9__gnu_cxx4ropeIcSaIcEE10_S_min_lenE __GLOBAL__I__ZNKSt9basic_iosIcSt11char_traitsIcEE7rdstateEv __GLOBAL__I__ZNSt10moneypunctIcLb0EEC2Em __GLOBAL__I__ZNSt5ctypeIcE13classic_tableEv __GLOBAL__I__ZNSt7codecvtIcc9mbstate_tE2idE ___main I am almost ready to throw in the towel.
