is it just me?! (linker troubles)

  hello,

  after the easter break, i continued to try to install libstdc++-2.90.8
(with gcc-2.95.2).  after the deletion of the -Werror flag, it compiles
fine, however, the resulting compiler chokes on a simple hello.cc:

grisu% which gcc
/usr/local/bin/gcc
# yes, this _is_ the new compiler

grisu% gcc hello.cc 
/tmp/ccmwuqlA.o: In function `main':
/tmp/ccmwuqlA.o(.text+0xf): undefined reference to `cout'
/tmp/ccmwuqlA.o(.text+0x14): undefined reference to `basic_ostream<char, char_traits<char> > & operator<<<char_traits<char> >(basic_ostream<char, char_traits<char> > &, char const *)'
/tmp/ccmwuqlA.o: In function `__static_initialization_and_destruction_0':
/tmp/ccmwuqlA.o(.text+0x46): undefined reference to `ios_base::Init::Init(void)'
/tmp/ccmwuqlA.o(.text+0x5b): undefined reference to `ios_base::Init::~Init(void)'

/tmp/ccmwuqlA.o(.gnu.linkonce.t.__tfQ28ios_base7failure+0x1a): undefined reference to `exception type_info node'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

grisu% cat hello.cc
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
  cout << "hello world\n";
  return 0;
}

  what's happening here?  fyi, this is on a debian 2.2 linux system.

best regards,
