This is incorrect analysis.  Your gcc -v trace says something else:

It cannot find necessary *libraries*, not header files.  The linker 
doesn't give a damn about headers.

The reason is that you didn't follow the advice of README.1ST and the 
FAQ: when linking C++ programs, use gxx instead of gcc.  gxx instructs 
the linker to scan the C++ class libraries.

Did you edit your DJGPP.ENV file?  If not, these paths should have been 
printed with forward slashes.  If you did edit DJGPP.ENV, please revert 
it to its stock version (you might have trouble with some DJGPP programs 
otherwise).
