This means the compiler can't find the include files mentioned.
These are "standard" includes in C++ systems, like stdio.h is
for C. (There is no offical standard yet, but the ones mentioned
are always there, as far as I know.)

It probably means that libg++, the GNU C++ "standard" lib
was not installed on your system, or that the g++ installation
was not told where to look for them.

Sadly, having a compiler doesn't mean one has a compilation environment.
