Segfaults under Linux

[Sai-Lai Lo]

This question seems to come up frequently. Duncan Grisby has pointed out
earlier on this list that the problem is with libstdc++.so.2.7.2. Let me
repost what he wrote:

 The problem is actually in libstdc++.so.2.7.2 -- it fails to initialise
 mutexes which it later tries to use. The solution is to use the egcs
 compiler, as this comes with libstdc++.so.2.8.0. The optimiser works too. 

 See http://www.orl.co.uk/omniORB/omniORB_240/README.egcs for details of
 how to use it.
