Automated rollback of commit 2aeaeba66857c561dd6d63c79a213f1cabc3650d.

*** Reason for rollback ***

Breaks C++ on gcc 4.8.4 (specifically, TensorFlow: https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/4474)

Fixes #4474

*** Original change description ***

When linking mostly-static Linux binaries, link libstdc++.a explicitly.

This allows libstdc++ to be statically linked, which is normally only
possible when invoking GCC as `g++` with the `-static-libstdc++` flag.

Fixes https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/2840

See https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/issues/415 for additional
background and context.

Bazel

{Fast, Correct} - Choose two

Build and test software of any size, quickly and reliably.

  • Speed up your builds and tests: Bazel only rebuilds what is necessary. With advanced local and distributed caching, optimized dependency analysis and parallel execution, you get fast and incremental builds.

  • One tool, multiple languages: Build and test Java, C++, Android, iOS, Go, and a wide variety of other language platforms. Bazel runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

  • Scalable: Bazel helps you scale your organization, codebase, and continuous integration solution. It handles codebases of any size, in multiple repositories or a huge monorepo.

  • Extensible to your needs: Easily add support for new languages and platforms with Bazel's familiar extension language. Share and re-use language rules written by the growing Bazel community.
