No, then he would have gotten a compiler error, not a linker error.

The problem is that he didn't read the README.1ST file that come with
DJGPP, which states that one must link in the C++ libraries when
compiling C++ programs.  The most straightforward way to do this is to
run gxx (g++ under Unix) instead of gcc, although one can link in the
libraries manually if they so desire.
