Description:
On some FreeBSD installations, build and running test case "udf" will
fail with

  udf                            [ fail ]

  At line 18: query 'CREATE FUNCTION metaphon RETURNS STRING SONAME "udf_example.so"'
  failed: 1126: Can't open shared library 'udf_example.so'
  (errno: 0 /home/kent/mysql-5.1/sql/.libs/udf_example.so: Undefined symbol "_ZdlPv")

The problem is that the symbol "_ZdlPv" is defined in "libstdc++.so".
The normal gcc built binaries on the download page uses CXX=gcc to
compile the C++ source "udf_example.cc", and this will include a
reference to this symbol, but not a reference to the library.

How to repeat:
Build with CXX=gcc on FreeBSD 5.1 and gcc 3.2.2,
and run the test case "udf".

Suggested fix:
There is no need for "udf_example.cc" to be C++ source.
