[gentoo-amd64] latest firefox-bin libstdc++ errors

[Mark Haney]

I updated to the latest firefox-bin and tried it out yesterday and had
it bomb with this error:

/opt/firefox/firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries:
libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Revdep-rebuild didn't fix it, so what's the deal?

probably: you made a gcc update and there are stale libstdc++.so.5.la files 
somewhere.

fix_libtool_files.sh might help. And looking for 
stale /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/VERSION/ dirs.

Yep, that did it.  I got the updated version this morning and that fixed it.
