Just check out the spelling of include....

You've written #inlcude.... which is not acceptable - should have been
#include <iostream.h>.
If all the environmental variables are set properly - as you're saying
- then this could only be the problem, you didn't have to move
libstdc++.a anywhere.
The environmental vars will take care of it.
So make sure absolutely that they are properly working.
Your program looks fine....

One suggestion :- C++ allows main to return void.
So use it if you don't want main to return the status to the OS.
It is a much cleaner way.
