Comment (by gk):

 Replying to [comment:2 mcs]:
 > I did not test that scenario, because I confirmed that without
 LD_LIBRARY_PATH set on my system, all of the tor dependencies are
 satisfied by system libraries (probably not a good thing):

 I gave it a test. Here is what I did:
 1. I got rid of my system libevent.
 2. I downloaded a 4.0-alpha-2 and commented out the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
 settings in the start script.
 3. On starting 4.0-alpha-2 tor complained about the missing libevent and
 did not start.
 4. I removed the comments in the start script, started and updated to
 4.0-alpha-3.
 5. A restart worked as it should. Thus, for tor LD_LIBRARY_PATH is somehow
 still present.

 If that is true, I wonder whether a short-term workaround would be to put
 the libstdc++ into the directory with the libs tor is dependent on.
