I tried two versions of gcc for os/2.  I can't remeber where the first
came from but it was a chore.  The filenames were incompatible with 
a FAT file system and there were several other problems in getting
simple programs to work.  I switched to emx/gcc 0.8e from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu
in /pub/os2/2.0/programming/emx?  It installed no problem, it ran simple
programs no problem.  The readmes with it claim a wider range of output
file formats than my previously attempted gcc, both dos exe and os2 exe.
I have yet to try a C++ program, manyly because I have never programmed
C++.  Maybe someone else has more information or other ideas.  You may
want to try the comp.os2.programmer news group, there are many gcc users
there.
