Perhaps this would be an opportune moment to reconsider the way that
libstdc++
(and generally the whole gcc/g++ runtime) is packaged, and to go for the
obvious
and supported route of only shipping one copy of the runtime - the one
corresponding to
the latest version of the compiler that you ship (gcc11 ?), and putting it
directly in
/usr/lib.

To get there would involve rebuilding the versioned runtime packages (make
them empty)
and creating an unversioned runtime package that they all depend on, but
would obviate the
need to rebuild any of the consumers, and would largely eliminate any pain
in future.
