1. The elder RH4.2 gcc I used the include file "typeinfo",
there is no typeinfo in gcc anymore, there is in egcs, but
do I want to use this?

2. In egcs I'm unable to link libg++, I'm now using
libstdc++ but my preference is with libg++

1) EGCS is replacing gcc in the Red Hat distribution. Yes, use
egcs for C++ work.

2) libg++ is supported only on i386 in Red Hat 5.2 and
will not be supported in Red Hat 6.0. Either convert to libstdc++
or compile your own version of libg++
