I would suggest #ifdef-ing on something that only will be defined in the environment where these symbols are causing a problem (users of libsupc++).  I don't know what the #ifdef will be for that environment.  But on some of my platforms of interest _LIBCPPABI_VERSION will not be defined, and I will need the symbols inside of that #ifdef (on the front side of this transition period).

Thanks much!
