Is your compiler built with Objective-C++ support? This is not the

Is gcc Objective-C++ support distinct from ordinary Objective-C
support? I can compile and run a simple Objective-C program but not
an Objective-C++ program.
Yes, in GCC objc and objc++ are entirely distinct front-ends. This,
unfortunately, means that improvements in one do not always get shared
with the other, and that while objc is almost-unmaintained, objc++ is
completely unmaintained.
If it is distinct, I suppose I will have to rebuild gcc with the
appropriate Objective-C++ support flag enabled in the configure stage?
Yes, you need to add objc++ to the list of languages to enable that
you pass to ./configure.
