Wouldn't this mean that we can't build base using the shipped-in-base g++? If we have C++ in base, we don't ship libstdc++ and g++ can't work with libc++, then people wanting to compile the base system with gcc/g++ will have to install a libstdc++ package.

I don't see how that's very different from requiring a gcc/g++ package.
