openoffice package requires libstdc++.so.6

[Stephen Montgomery-Smith]

Install the package/port gcc42.

I have said this to the list before.  Surely any port that uses gcc4.2 
or such like HAS to have it listed as RUN_DEPENDS or LIB_DEPENDS as well 
as BUILD_DEPENDS.  And this needs to be fixed at the ports/Mk level. 
How can the naive user be expected to know to install gcc42.  (Even if 
you are running FreeBSD 7.x, this comes an issue with any port that uses 
FORTRAN.)
