Sorry for top-posting.
Here's my goal:
years ago I developed an application which I must compile with g++ 2.95.
As I can recall, I was able to static compiling it and having it run on 
linux systems where no g++ nor libstdc++ were installed.
Recently I discovered that I lost the executable and so I wanted to 
recompile it. As it seems I cannot static compile it again, but linking 
with '-rpath .' I only have to put libstdc++ in the same directory where 
the executable (dinamycally compiled) is.
