OK

That's packages. Nothing to do with the compiler

You ought to have something like :

buildroot/build_arm_nofpu/staging_dir/bin/arm-linux-uclibc-g++

(gcc-4.0.3 / binutils-2.17 / uClibc-0.9.28)

If the c++ support is not generated in your compiler, maybe you have to
check in the corresponding .mk file if the right parameters are used.
