Are you sure this version of 'gcc' is he C++ compiler?
Try:  gcc --version
      g++ --version
      gcc -v
      g++ -v

This suggestions are besed on my newledge on RH-Linux.
While switching to egcs, the have 'gcc-2.7.2.x' _without_ the C++
stuff, because 'gcc-2.7.x.x' is required to compile the Linux kernel.

And finally upgrade to gcc-2.8 or even better to 'egcs-1.1x.x'.
The latter is better for C++ (AFAIK).
