Please post a short program that causes the error(s), along with a
capture of the compilation output (use "redir -o gcc.log -eo ...", where
... is your normal command line, or cut and paste from RHIDE).  We need
to see at least this to figure out your problem.

Just in case it's something simple, let me ask you some questions:

1) Can you compile C programs?
2) Can you compile C++ programs that use other headers besides
_string.h?
3) Can you compile from DOS?
4) If you get undefined references, are you linking the C++ libraries
when you compile (RHIDE should do this automatically)?
5) Are you spelling #include correctly?  (Don't laugh; somebody did this
earlier.)
6) Have you made any changes to your 'djgpp.env'?
