Thank you.

I think I know what's happening: the libstdc++ is picked up as a
dependency library for one of the libraries you link against.  To find
out which one, you could check each library's .la file, if present and
where found.

However, we'll be able to pinpoint it easily if you just send the output
of this command back (it's above line with --debug added), when executed
in the right directory:

/bin/sh ../libtool --debug --mode=link gcc -g -pipe -Wall -Werror -I../src -g 
-O2 -I/usr/include/SDL -D_REENTRANT  -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lSDL 
-lpthread -o test  test.o -L../src -lemf -lSDL -lpthread -lGLU -lGL

You can compress (bzip2, gzip) if you like.

One more thing: I believe you should get rid of the
  -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib
part, wherever that came from.  Probably
  sdl-config --libs
gave you that, unnecessarily.

Cheers,
Ralf
