But I tried that before I submitted the question and it wasn't working.
    Say I compile manually (not hard with little dxe2gen..)

D:\Project\dxe2\src>gcc -O2 -c -g -Wall *.c -I../include
D:\Project\dxe2\src>gcc -O2 -g -Wall dxe2api.o dxe2stat.o -I../include
dxe2gen.cpp -o dxe2gen.exe

external_file

Note: it appears that gcc DID NOT 'link with the standard C++ library',
although the cpp file extension appeared in the second command line.

now I try it again with manual link option with library:
gcc -O2 -g -Wall dxe2api.o dxe2stat.o -I../include dxe2gen.cpp -o
dxe2gen.exe -lstdcxx

...and it works fine. it seems that GCC is not automaticly pulling up the
standard C++ lib here, even when a .cpp file is being specified.
