No.  It's a matter of using the right version of gcc.
libstdc++.so.5 is used with gcc-2.95.x, and
libstdc++.so.6 is used with gcc-3.x.

In other words, you're screwed.  You have to go find a gcc-2.9x
toolchain if you really need to interoperate with
libappbase-xscale-r.so.  Alternately, you could convince
whoever gave you that shared library to recompile
with your toolchain.
