Newbie question-Compile error

[Michael Montz*4549*LC*7a000449as <montz@tcac.net>]

I seem to be missing something on my system, but I am unable to figure out what
it is.  The following is the config.log when trying to compile:

	configure:559: checking for a BSD compatible install
	configure:612: checking whether build environment is sane
	configure:669: checking whether make sets ${MAKE}
	configure:708: checking for working aclocal
	configure:721: checking for working autoconf
	configure:734: checking for working automake
	configure:747: checking for working autoheader
	configure:760: checking for working makeinfo
	configure:779: checking for gcc
	configure:856: checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) works
	configure:870: gcc -o conftest    conftest.c  1>&5
	configure:890: checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) is a cross-compiler
	configure:895: checking whether we are using GNU C
	configure:904: gcc -E conftest.c
	configure:919: checking whether gcc accepts -g
	configure:951: checking for c++
	configure:982: checking whether the C++ compiler (c++  ) works
	configure:996: c++ -o conftest    conftest.C  1>&5
	/usr/bin/ld: cannot open -lstdc++: No such file or directory
	collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
	configure: failed program was:
	#line 992 "configure"
	#include "confdefs.h"
	main(){return(0);}

Running ldconfig -v|grep libstdc++ resulted in the following:

           libstdc++.so.27 => libstdc++.so.27.2.1
           libstdc++.so.2.7.2 => libstdc++.so.2.7.2.8
           libstdc++-libc6.0-1.so.2 => libstdc++-2-libc6.0-1-2.9.0.so
           libstdc++.so.2.8 => libstdc++.so.2.8.0

What am I missing?
