While "gcc" will compile C++ sources just like "c++", it won't link
them without additional libraries. It's really better to let c++
figure it out.

You have no C++ compiler installed. If you're running RedHat 6.1, you
need to install the following rpm's:
compat-egcs-c++-5.2-1.0.3a.1
egcs-c++-1.1.2-24
libstdc++-2.9.0-24
On other systems, you'll likely need other packages.
