lstdc++ is included in postdeps in libtool for some reason.

postdeps="-lstdc++ -lmingwthrd -lmingw32 -lgcc_s -lgcc -lmoldname 
-lmingwex -lmsvcrt -ladvapi32 -lshell32 -luser32 -lkernel32 -lmingwthrd 
-lmingw32 -lgcc_s -lgcc -lmoldname -lmingwex -lmsvcrt"

this postdeps was introduced by
output_verbose_link_cmd='$CC -shared $CFLAGS -v conftest.$objext 2>&1 | 
$GREP -v "^Configured with:" | $GREP "\-L"'

but in config.status,
postdeps=''
postdeps_CXX='-lstdc++ -lmingwthrd -lmingw32 -lgcc_s -lgcc -lmoldname 
-lmingwex -lmsvcrt -ladvapi32 -lshell32 -luser32 -lkernel32 -lmingwthrd 
-lmingw32 -lgcc_s -lgcc -lmoldname -lmingwex -lmsvcrt'
so it seems good.
therefore, this problem began from *executing libtool commands*.
the variable 'postdeps' is not tagged with "_CXX". resulting in 
wrong-generated libtool
