(Not readily apparent from the outside > of course.) I believe core PHP is all in C. Extensions, however, could be in C++ And if one extension has forgotten to edit the Makefiles to do -lstdc++ I presume that it could be the cause. I'd even hazard a guess that it would only surface if one disabled other extensions that generally PRECEDE it in the configure / make process, as once the -lstdc++ is in there, it remains for the rest of the build process. This is just a guess, however... At any rate, if you could eliminate each extension, one by one, you might find the culprit, assuming my guesses are valid. No promises anything I have said is even "correct" in any way. -- brain cancer update: http://richardlynch.blogspot.com/search/label/brain%20tumor Donate: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=FS9NLTNEEKWBE
