Thanks for the reminder.  :-)  I forgot to mention that in my message.  On
my machine, I am using libstdc++2.9-dev.  I am not sure about libg++*-dev
though.  I'll check when I get home.  :-)

I believe libstdc++2.8-dev.  master.debian.org seems not to be on the
absolutely cutting edge, probably for good reasons.  :-)

Thank you very much for the suggestion!  I will give it a try and see if I
can get lilypond compiled with the latest libg++ installed, before the
freeze.  :-)
