gcc problem

[Lauer Rainer <rainer dot lauer at thomson dot net>]

Hi Gents,
I've installed the latest version of cygwin (as of today 2.03.04). My PC is
running Windows 2000 with service pack 4. Installation is done on my loca
drive d:. I tried a small "C++" and failed, the reason is totally unclear to
me.
The program is:
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
  int selection;
  bool loop = true;
  
  while (loop)
  {
#if 0    
    cout << endl;
    cout << "*********************\n";
    cout << "*  Learning bed C++ *\n";
    cout << "*********************\n";

    cout << ">>> CHAPTER 4 <<<\n";
    cout << "=================\n\n";

    cout << " 1: Review_5\n";
    cout << "-1: Exit\n";
    cout << "$ ";
    cin >> selection;
    cout << endl;

    switch (selection)
    {
      case -1:
        loop = false;
        break;
      case 0:
        break;
      case 1:
        break;
      case 2:
        break;
      case 3:
        break;
      case 4:
        break;
      case 5:
        break;
      case 6:
        break;
      case 7:
        break;
      case 8:
        break;
      case 9:
        break;
      case 10:
        break;
      case 11:
        break;
    }//  switch (selection)
#endif    
  }//  while (loop)
  return 0;
}//main

The error message is:
$ gcc -o gtest gtest.cc
/cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/lauerr/LOCALS~1/Temp/ccCmpxzX.o(.text+0x4d):gtest.cc:

Desperatelly I installed the complete (!) cygwin - the result is still the
same.

When I set the #if 0 to #if 1the error message looks like:

What's wrong (template, path wrong, library missing)?

Can you help me, please?

Many thanks in advance.
