Because you didn't follow the instructions.  To properly link C++ code,
you must add the C++ libraries to the command line:

gcc -o myprog.exe myprog.cpp -lgpp

You can also use 'gxx' instead of 'gcc', which adds the libraries
automatically.

void main() is illegal C/C++.  main() must always return an integer.

int main( void )
{
    cout << "Allo";
    return 0;
}
