You can probably work around the repo. problems by using something
like:
yum shell
downgrade libstdc++
install gcc-c++
run
...or even the full blown:
yum disto-sync full
yum install gcc-c++
...or even enable "F17" again, and get the newer versions.

Not really, I think the problem is that you installed with F17 and are
now on rawhide, but rawhide has older versions of a bunch of packages.
