commit b5dde4a2ff59cc87390a33d85c7bf0ad6443cb6c
Author: iraisr <iraisr@a5019735-40e9-0310-863c-91ae7b9d1cf9>
Date: Wed Mar 30 17:53:03 2016 +0000
Run __gnu_cxx::__freeres() cleanup function available
from libstdc++ when available, similar to existing __libc_freeres().
New option --run-cxx-freeres=<yes|no> can be used to change whether
this cleanup function is called or not.
Note that __gnu_cxx::__freeres() is currently available
only in gcc 6. It is not yet decided what to do about
libstdc++ from gcc 5.
Tracked under https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=69945
for libstdc++.
Fixes BZ#345307 (partially).
