The error above is unfortunately fatal -- it means that the libstdc++ that
the SAGE binary was linked against is much newer than the one on
a Redhat EL 4 system (which is fairly old -- but stable, actually).
Your options include:
   (1) Download the file libstdc++.so.6  that I just posted at
         http://www.sagemath.org/SAGEbin/linux/64bit/
    and put it in SAGE_ROOT/local/lib/ and try again.  This might
    just easily fix the problem for you.
   (2) Wait until I somehow get a copy of RHEL, install it, and
    create a binary for it.
   (3) Build SAGE from source yourself (this is usually very easy);
    you just download sage-2.8.2.tar from
          http://www.sagemath.org/dist/src
   extract the tarball, type "make", and wait about 2 hours.
