Installing compat-libstdc++ on RHEL

[Al Sparks <data345 yahoo com>]

Trying to do an Oracle installation on a x86_64 system.

Pre-install requirements specify compat-libstdc++.

I do:
   up2date --install compat-libstdc++

and I get:
   The following packages you requested were not found:
    compat-libstdc++

I'm pretty sure that package is available in the 32bit world.....

Any ideas?
