Here is a patch for the first possibility.
It certainly makes libstdc++.so to link and even the unwind info looks
good on brief skimming.

2004-08-17  Jakub Jelinek  <jakub@redhat.com>

	* config/tc-ia64.c (start_unwind_section): Add linkonce_empty
	argument, don't do anything if current section is not
	.gnu.linkonce.t.* and linkonce_empty is set.
	(generate_unwind_image, dot_endp): Adjust callers, call
	start_unwind_section (*, 1) if nothing will be put into the
	section.
