libgcc_s.so.1 required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 complains about missing GCC_4.2.0

Description of problem: There seems to be some kind of regression in the latest gcc 3 package in RHEL4.4. A third-party application (Abaqus) which worked previously on RHEL4 now fails to link properly on Update 4: /usr/local/vol/abaqus/6.5-1/cae/exec/ABQcaeK.exe: /usr/local/vol/abaqus/6.5-1/cae/External/libgcc_s.so.1: version `GCC_4.2.0' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6) ABAQUS Error: ABAQUS/CAE Kernel exited with an error. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libstdc++ from gcc-3.4.6-3.src.rpm How reproducible: Always. Additional info: A workaround exists, replacing the libgcc_s.so.1 provided by the application and instead using /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 from the OS distribution. A web search reveals other applications with the same problem, like Ensim http://forum.ensim.com/showthread.php?t=16882 and also similar problems on FC5.
That's Abaqus' fault, it shouldn't override the system libgcc_s with their own, at least not if it doesn't override all toolchain libs. So please report this to the third party vendor instead. There is nothing we can do about this.
