I have looked at this on SLES (my primary $dayjob platform), where bash
depends on libreadline, libreadline depends on libtinfo and libtinfo on
ncurses, which in turn depends on libstdc++.

This appears to be a SUSE only "issue" though. At least this specific
dependency chain is not present on Fedora (ncurses does not drag in
libstdc++).
