Subject: can't compile c++

Hi all!  In short, I installed djgpp and it compiled hello.c from the
samples directory just fine, but when I try a simple c++ program, I get
the following error:

myfirst.cc(.text+0x2e): undefined reference to `cout'
myfirst.cc(.text+0x33): undefined reference to `ostream::operator<<(char const *
)'
myfirst.cc(.text+0x40): undefined reference to `cout'
myfirst.cc(.text+0x45): undefined reference to `ostream::operator<<(char const *
)'

I am running djgpp 1.12maint3.  I am using a 486dx33, 8MB RAM, Win95,
MS-DOS window (command line).

In long,
I unzipped the following files in the E:\DJGPP directory:

BCCGRX12.ZIP	BNU252BN.ZIP	BNU252DC.ZIP	BNU252S1.ZIP	BNU252S2.ZIP
BNU252S3.ZIP	BNU252S4.ZIP	BSN122BN.ZIP	BSN122DC.ZIP	BSN122SR.ZIP

SED118BN.ZIP	SED118SR.ZIP	TXI310BN.ZIP	TXI310DC.ZIP	TXI310SR.ZIP
WMEMU112.ZIP

I added E:\DJGPP\BIN to my path, added the SET DJGPP=E:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV
variable setting to autoexec.bat, and ensured that the FILES and SHELL
settings in config.sys were sufficient.  I then rebooted.

I ran go32 and it was version 1.12, so I applied all 4 maintenance 
release patches:

DJ112M1.ZIP 	DJ112M2.ZIP 	DJ112M3.ZIP 	DJ112M4.ZIP 

Running each patch batch file was successful, and go32 went from 
version 1.12 to 1.12 patch level 3.

Since patch level 1 was supposed to change bnu24bn.zip, lgp260bn.zip,
and lgp260dc.zip, and I started with versions higher, I reunzipped
(overwriting) the following:

BNU252BN.ZIP	BNU252DC.ZIP	BNU252S1.ZIP	BNU252S2.ZIP	BNU252S3.ZIP
BNU252S4.ZIP	LGP262BN.ZIP	LGP262DC.ZIP	LGP262SR.ZIP

I ran the batch program E:\DJGPP\SAMPLES\HELLO\TRYIT.BAT and the hello.c
code compiled without any problems and produced the following output:

  go32 version 1.12.maint3 Copyright (C) 1994 DJ Delorie
  Hello!  This is the test program.

(this only contains c syntax, not c++ syntax)

I tried to compile the following source code (myfirst.cpp):

// myfirst.cpp--displays a message
#include <iostream.h>	// a PREPROCESSOR directive
int main(void)
{
	cout << "Come up and C++ me some time.";
	cout << "\n";
	return 0;
}

This is the result of compilation:

Please let me know what I should check or change to get c++ working.

Thanks!
