Though I don't think this is the most likely answer here, another
possibility is that the problem packages have been built on a machine
running an 8.0_BETA release from prior to Oct. 12, 2017. Because prior
to that, libstdc++.so.7 existed, and then it was replaced with .8.[1]

This may be the reason I see things like this with the builds found for
powerpc/8.0_2018Q3:

blackbox:
        -lSM.7 => /usr/X11R7/lib/libSM.so.7
        -lICE.7 => /usr/X11R7/lib/libICE.so.7
        -lc.12 => /usr/lib/libc.so.12
        -lX11.7 => /usr/X11R7/lib/libX11.so.7
        -lxcb.2 => /usr/X11R7/lib/libxcb.so.2
        -lXau.7 => /usr/X11R7/lib/libXau.so.7
        -lXdmcp.7 => /usr/X11R7/lib/libXdmcp.so.7
        -lXext.7 => /usr/X11R7/lib/libXext.so.7
        -lstdc++.7 => not found
        -lm.0 => /usr/lib/libm.so.0
        -lgcc_s.1 => /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1
