It compiled everything fine with no errors.  I thought gcc automatically detects
the file type and does the appropriate compilation?

It's still compiling now after the suggestion made by igor, but I guess this
might be an issue for the linker as we use an odd extension here (ob3 and ln3).
 Perhaps for the linker I'll change it to g++ and we'll see what happens
