on a RH 7.3 system, the following

        /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3
        /usr/lib/libstdc++-3-libc6.2-2-2.10.0.so
        /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.7.2.8
        /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.9
        /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.8
        /usr/lib/libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so
        /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.8.0
        /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.9.dummy
        /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2
        /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.7.2

are either from:

        libstdc++-2.96-113
   or   compat-libstdc++-6.2-2.9.0.16

you'll note that there is no libstdc++.so.5, which begs the question as to
on which distro was the gnomemeeting you're tryning to run was built ? be that
as it may, if you install the libstdc++-<whatever> rpm, you should be able to
link. if you need to compile, don't forget to install the -devel- also.

best rgds,

   You can release software that's good, software that's inexpensive, or
   software that's available on time.  You can usually release software
   that has 2 of these 3 attributes -- but not all 3.
