No problems, I am very much grateful to u for interest
shown in problem I am facing. Though this chapter is closed
relationship continues. I have to find out some other workaround
or switch back to 9.04.

This is good and bad part of Opensource. Good is u can make it work
bad is time spent.

BTW I have tried libstdc++ way Philippe Makowski has suggested.
But it also fails. I am going to try other options suggested by him.
Next try will be compiling from sources. Though I have not done
this before rather than changing distros and waiting for ubuntu to
fix I feel acquiring this skill will help me in long term, since
this can happen in future releases also.

Thanks and best regards
