Please make a point of reading the DJGPP FAQ list whenever you have any 
problems, before posting here.  The FAQ already covers a lot of frequent 
problems like yours.  The FAQ is available as v2/faq211b.zip from the 
same place you got DJGPP.

You need to use gxx instead of gcc to link C++ programs.  See sections 1 
and 8.7 of the FAQ.

BAD idea!  You are mixing GCC 2.8.1 with C++ compiler and libraries from 
version 2.7.2.1.  Again, section 8.7 of the FAQ explains this.  Please 
upgrade to gpp281b.zip and lgp2811b.zip.

Make sure you unzip the packages with a DOS unzip program, not with 
WinZip, for example.  See section 8.2 of the FAQ.
