Jim, unfortunately this is a different error, so it is useless for us.

Anyway, what you can do is, to extract the .tar.gz file, try an
install with 'R CMD INSTALL' and then check the dependencies of the
igraph.so file:

tar xzf igraph_0.5.3.tar.gz
R CMD INSTALL igraph
ldd igraph/src/igraph.so

This will list all dynamic libraries needed for igraph, and whether
the dynamic linker can actually find them. I suspect that it cannot
find the proper libstdc++. If this is the case, then please find this
library on your system and set LD_LIBRARY_PATH properly. (Or use
another method to tell the linker about the place of the library.)

Best,
Gabor
