I suspect the problem is that not all C++ compilers use the same
name-mangling and virtual function table layout scheme.  This means
that code compiled with one cannot be linked with libraries compiled
by another.  The compatability insured by adherence to C++ standards
will only be at the source code level, not at the .o file level.

If my explanation is correct, you should also have problems trying
to do static linking.
