Well I did some testing...
downloaded the GNU libstdc++ sources and tried to compile it...
got stuck in a file c++io.h or similar name.

Then I found stlport, and with a couple of hacks got it working.
The bad news...

hello world using C:  3kb
hello world using C++ and cygwin dll: 70kb (I tough it was too much)
hello world using C++ stlport: ~600kb!
all stripped

I still want a good C++ library, may be isn't that hard if we try.
