(Get the code!)
This also breaks Eclipse *as packaged by Ubuntu*, since the profiling tools require a native binary that gets linked against libstdc++5.
So it's not even sufficient to avoid non-Ubuntu applications to be safe from the repercussions of this decision. Moreover, I suspect a lot of people are affected by this and don't know it, as it took some investigation to find this as the root cause; at the outset, all I could tell was that the profiler was broken.
(The profiling tools are an add-on, but they're an official part of the Eclipse project and can be installed entirely from the GUI, as supported by Ubuntu's Eclipse packaging, so it's not unreasonable to expect this to work.)
