Good point. I don't know why that build-dep got in there. 

I'm sure I remember something about libsdtc++ not behaving the same as
libc in this regard, and having to be asked for explicitly, but
clearly I am either confused or out of date.

You are right that simply not specifying it does work in a clean
build, and thus is the simplest way to proceed.
