Not with gcc 2.8.x...  g++ is the valid executable name (if you have Win95)
to be more inline with the Unix world...  gpp also works though; unless
you're like me and still using 2.7.2.1, where gxx will invoke the C++
compiler, unless of course you're like me and only write C programs. =)

Later,
Matt.
