--------------
You should remove -lg++ from the Makefile. libstdc++ (standard c++ lib)
is evolving toward standard ANSI c++ library and is
linked by default with g++ or c++. libg++ is considered obsolete
and includes only old clases not conforming the standard. -lg++ should
also be removed from makefiles in ROOT source in case of egcs or
gcc 2.8 compiler, especially from $ROOTSYS/test/Makefile.
