Does harmony _require_ libstdc++.so.5?  Since it's OSS, you probably
want to either yell at them build against a gcc >= 4, or rebuild it
yourself against libstdc++.so.6.  For playing around with, I can
understand installing .5.  But you should really make it use .6 at a
later date.

Until then:

yum install compat-libstdc++-33
