Fair enough. I made the assumption that you were speaking of 1.3.1. I do have libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 symlinked to libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.2 and from there to libstdc++-3-libc6.1-2-2.10.0.so, but I am fairly sure that this was not my doing - it has been done on both my woody systems, only one of which has Java used on it...
