Hi Howard,
Hope you don't mind my chiming in here... mostly for the benefit
of the archives, and lurkers:

You only have to write the module calling code onc
I'm trying to link C++ code into a shared object for use as a Python
module. I'm using libtool to do the linking. On Linux this works
well, but on OpenBSD it fails with lots of C++ library symbols not
found.
The problem seems to be that on OpenBSD the shared object doesn't
pull in libstdc++. Py

Yes. Any libraries necessary for C++ programs should be applied when
linking using the C++ compiler. It seems that y
