Hamm bug: syslog() does not work together with libstdc++

[Farzad FARID <farzy@publicis.fr>]

 I'm writing a C++ program that has to use the syslog facility. The
development environment is Debian hamm with libc6 version 2.0.7pre1-2 and
libg++272 version 2.7.2.8-0.1.
 If I link my C++ program without any g++ libraries syslog works.
 If I link my C++ program with '-lstdc++' syslog does not work at all...

 Here is a sample program I wrote to demonstrate the bug :

test-syslog.cc:
#include <syslog.h> 
 
int main(int argc, char **argv) { 
    if (argc == 1) 
        return 0; 
    openlog(argv[0], LOG_PID, 0); 
 
    for (++argv ; *argv ; ++argv) 
        syslog(LOG_LOCAL0 | LOG_NOTICE, *argv); 
    return 0; 
} 

If it is compiled with 'gcc -o test-syslog test-syslog.cc' the program
will correctly write its parameters to the syslog files.

If I use the command 'gcc -o test-syslog test-syslog.cc -lstdc++' it
won't...

 Can anyone tell me where the problem is and how I can solve it? Is this a
libc6 or libg++ bug?

 Thanks.
