If you study 'readme.1st' carefully, you'll see that you have to use a
different command line to compile C++ programs, because the linker
doesn't have any way to know that it needs to link the C++ libraries.

Specifically, add "-lgpp" to the end of your command line, or use 'gxx'
instead of 'gcc' which does this for you.  You can use "-lstdcx" or
"-liostr" instead of "-lgpp" (for gcc 2.8.0, use "-lstdcxx"; "-liostr"
no longer exists).

The readme does need to be updated for gcc 2.8.0...
