The problem is that the linker g++ is invoking cannot find the library libg++.a. You must have compiled the GNU G++ library, libg++.a, and installed it in the same directory where gcc-ld and gcc-cc1plus were installed (at a guess, anyway). If you use the GNU ld from binutils, rather than the one included with G++, you must tell it what the standard search path for libraries will be - by default it only looks in /lib, /usr/lib, /usr/local/lib. There is a preprocessor macro called STANDARD_SEARCH_DIR you can set to modify this default set. If you use the ld distributed with g++, there must be a similar way to specify the standard search path, but I'm not sure what it would be off-hand.
