I didn't realize, that you couldn't get it to work.
Make sure that libgpp.a is in you lib directory. (I guess it is and you 
checked that allready, but anyway..)
Then write a small example program like:

#include <_string.h>
int main ()
{
    String x; // Note the capital S!
}

and compile it with:
gxx example.cc -O3 -lgpp

This is a pecularity with lgpp: You will have to use some optimizations. I 
don't know exactly why this is happening (it smells a bit buggy to me), 
but it is.
