[Gdal-dev] libstdc++ Error while compiling gdal 1.3.2

[Patton, Eric]

I am trying to compile gdal 1.3.2; I completed ./configure cleanly with no
errors and got quite a ways through make when it quit with the following
error:

...<snip>...
ranlib .libs/libgdal.a
creating libgdal.la
/bin/sed: can't read /usr/lib/libstdc++.la: No such file or directory
libtool: link: `/usr/lib/libstdc++.la' is not a valid libtool archive
make[1]: *** [libgdal.la] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/gdal-1.3.2'
make: *** [check-lib] Error 2

Thinking that maybe I don't have the right libstdc++ installed, I checked
Synaptic (using Ubuntu 5.10) to see what was there:

libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 - The GNU stdc++ library
Installed Files:

/usr
/usr/share
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2
/usr/share/doc/libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2/README.Bugs.gz

/usr/lib
/usr/lib/libstdc++-3-libc6.2-2-2.10.0.so
/usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3

Any ideas what might be wrong here?
