_If_ iostream.h is in DJGPP/lang/cxx _and_ you can 
compile ordinary C, you probably 
tried to compile with
 gcc -o foo.exe foo.c
Try
 gcc -o foo.exe foo.C
and it should work. This is, however not recommended, because
it can get you into interesting trouble concerning upper case
lower case issues that you can easily do with out. Rather
use .cc as the extension and gxx, because it automagically
adds libiostream to your program:
gxx -o foo.exe foo.cc
