Remembering stuff from my redhat era I think...., I say libgcc-compat, 
libgcc+-compat, compat-libgcc+ or similar. Thinking a little more, I confirm 
the last one is most likely.

Checking http://rpmfind.net like this:
http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=libstdc%2B%2B.so.5
and I am stunned. It says: 
http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/redhat/8.0/i386/libstdc++-3.2-7.i386.html is 
the one you need for redhat8. I am just curious... how did you manage to 
install gnomemeeting from an rpm (I am convinced you installed from an RPM, 
or otherwise you wouldn't have it linked against a library you don't have) 
when rpms do have dependency checks?
