How can I upgrade libstdc++.so.5 to libstdc++.so.6

In general, a libstdc++.so.6 ought to be able to
/coexist/ with (not replace) libstdc++.so.5. That's
what the library versioning scheme is for, after all.

Correct. Try rpm -ivh foo.rpm instead of rpm -Uvh foo.rpm. Many RPMs will allow multiple versions to happily coexist as long as there are no conflicting files trying to overwrite each other. Our product is running both 5 and 6 side by side with no ill effects.
