Unfortunately, unlike most libraries, libstdc++ will only work with programs compiled with the exact same compiler (and version of that compiler) as libstdc++ was compiled with. So, if you're importing this binary from a different distro (or even a different version of the same distro) you're basically stuck.

This is why C++ is Broken and Wrong, but anyways.

Can you get the source to this program? Your best bet is probably to rebuild it.
