This is not a problem with make or the syntax of your makefile: you are
invoking your compiler incorrectly.  You need to use the right compiler
command line.  This is really a question that should be directed to a
mailing list or group associated with your compiler, not with make.


To get you started in the right direction I'll point out that you're
compiling and linking your C++ code with "cc", which is a C compiler,
not a C++ compiler.  You shouldn't expect that to work.

Try using "c++" instead of "cc".  GNU make uses the variable CXX to hold
the name of the C++ compiler (CC is the name of the C compiler).
