ok, I'm a bit confused. I thought that gcc and g++ could be used more or less interchangeably on the command line.

g++ implicitly links against libraries required for C++. gcc doesn't do that, so you have to specify those yourself. Since those can change from one compiler release to the next, you want to use g++ if you might be compiling C++ code.

Xcode gets this right for you -- it uses g++ to build C++ code and gcc to build C code.

Hope this helps,
Eric
