No, not a good idea. gcc-3.1.1-2 fixed this behavior, I think. Plus,
there's a gcc-3.1.1-3 coming out soon, so just chill, for now. A g++
compiler that doesn't automatically include the directory where its own
stdc++ library header files are stored is a broken g++ compiler and
needs to be fixed in g++ itself -- not band-aiding every C++ program on
earth.
