Well, if you look at /usr/doc/jade/buildinfo.Debian, you shall see that
I am well aware of this package and it's what I used to build jade
after backing off from egcs:
libc6-2.0.7pre1-4
gcc-2.7.2.3-4
g++272-2.7.2.3-4.2 (from slink mind you)
libg++272-2.7.2.8-0.1
libg++272-dev-2.7.2.8-0.1
sgml-base-1.01
sgml-data-0.11
make-3.76.1-8
dpkg-dev-1.4.0.22
By the way, g++272 is very excellent and nice and it was bascially smooth
as silk to install it and use it. Works great!

Ray, I am simply transmitting my experiences! Please don't jump down
my throat.
What I would like to know, actually, is whether I should be notifying
the jade upstream maintainer (James Clark) that his C++ is not up to
snuff, and here's why, or alternatively, submit a bug against egcs.
I think someone would have to look through the jade source to really
determine that however.
