I need the C++ header file files for numeric_limits (#include <limits>), but 
they are not packaged with libstdc++-devel-2.96-54.rpm

I managed to get the necessary files by rebuilding the source rpm:
rpm -bi gcc-2.96-54.src.rpm

Note: The sources for libstdc++ include a script (mknumeric_limits) that 
generates the required header:
./bits/std_limits.h

However, the necessary headers are lost again during packaging:
rpm -bb gcc-2.96-54.src.rpm
so they never get installed on the system.

It seems that if the headers are not present in the binary package, then 
there should at least be a way to automatically generate them after 
installing the binary package.

Is this a bug in gcc.spec?  Or is this the expected behavior?  Should I just 
use "--buildroot /" while rebuilding the source package to get all the files 
I need?  I'm new to this so I don't know the standard procedures.

Thanks,
Andy
