I can confirm that after the installation of glibc-2.1.2 on my Debian system
program using C++ iostream always crashes.
Please read the documentation that comes with glibc, especially the
FAQ (2.27 probably is the solition for your problems). Basically
you'll need to recompile the shared libstdc++.
It's not a good behaviour coz the libraries has the same main version number
( 2.* and .6 for .so ) and must be binary compatible !
And of course it is. Recompilation of binaries is not necessary
(except when the programs are explicitly violating the ABI, e.g. when
they are using library internals like the __setfpucw function or
depend on specific bugs in glibc-2.0 which are now fixed).
Recompilation of libraries is necessary in a few cases. Please refer
to the FAQ for details.
