The
very latest version/release of libstdc++ is available from the mingw project files page as part of the
binary archive distribution gcc-2.95.3-20010828.tar.gz:
The
source code is there as well.
gcc-2.95.2
for Mingw has been deprecated. Mumits' site is mostly maintained for legacy purposes anymore
and no longer is being used by the Mingw development community (see the Mingw
Home Page
) except as a legacy
resource. If Mumit is watching, I am sure he will clarify if he needs to.
