Actually, I did check the FAQ...but as I was poking around looking for the
STL headers, rather than trying to use them and getting unresolved
externals, this FAQ item ("8.7 Unresolved externals when linking programs
- Q: Why do I get so many unresolved symbols when linking my programs?")
didn't attract my attention.  I was scanning for something more like "What
ANSI C++ features are/aren't supported?". 

As it turns out, my confusion was caused by the C++-specific headers
living in a different directory (./lang/cxx, IIRC) from the 'usual' header
dir (./include).

In any case, thanks for the FAQ pointer!
