How to resolve libstdc++.6.dylib dependency

[Ken Cunningham]

Cameron Kaiser builds and distributes TenFourFox which is a c++11 app built with gcc48 against a new libstdc++. 

He has worked a lot of this out.

His instructions are here <https://github.com/classilla/tenfourfox/wiki/HowToBuildFPR#distributing-the-executable>, and there's a script in the repo that automates a lot of it.

Best, Ken

I guess this is because the libstdc++.6.dylib that is shipped with 10.5 doesn't contain those new features required by C++11 programs.

Of course I wouldn't like to bother users to install gcc6 from Mac Ports just to be able to run my program. Is there an easier way? Is the latest libstdc++ available as its own package in Mac Ports maybe or what is the suggested way of dealing with this?
