This commit glibc-2.15-685-g5ac3ea1 introduced a regression:

$ echo '#include <stdlib.h>' |gcc-4.1 -O2 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -S -xc++ - -o /dev/null
/usr/include/bits/stdlib.h:36: error: expected constructor, destructor, or type conversion before 'char'
/usr/include/stdlib.h:972: error: expected `}' at end of input

$ echo '#include <stdlib.h>' |gcc-4.1 -O2 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -E -xc++ - |grep -A1 __extern_always_inline
__extern_always_inline __attribute__ ((__warn_unused_result__)) char *
 realpath (const char *__restrict __name, char *__restrict __resolved) throw ()
--
__extern_always_inline int
 ptsname_r (int __fd, char *__buf, size_t __buflen) throw ()
--
__extern_always_inline __attribute__ ((__warn_unused_result__)) int
 wctomb (char *__s, wchar_t __wchar) throw ()
--
__extern_always_inline size_t
 mbstowcs (wchar_t *__restrict __dst, const char *__restrict __src, size_t __len) throw ()
--
__extern_always_inline size_t
 wcstombs (char *__restrict __dst, const wchar_t *__restrict __src, size_t __len) throw ()

That is, g++-4.1 in fortify mode no longer compiles stdlib.h;
Due to __GNUC_PREREQ (4,3) the minimal supported g++ version seems to be 4.3.
