Distcc with C++ undefined reference - c++

Question

I having trouble configuring distcc to compile C++ files. I did a standard small "Hello, World" program in C++ and am trying to get distcc to compile it locally (before I get fancy with a larger project), but I am getting "undefined reference" errors.
My program, called "hello.cpp":
#include <iostream>
int main(){
std::cout << "Hello World in c++" << std::endl;
return 0;
}
My command:
$ distcc hello.cpp
Terminal output:
/tmp/cc5rZwhV.o: In function `main': <br>
hello.cpp:(.text+0xa): undefined reference to `std::cout' <br>
hello.cpp:(.text+0xf): undefined reference to `std::basic_ostream<char, std::char_traits<char> >& std::operator<< <std::char_traits<char> >(std::basic_ostream<char, std::char_traits<char> >&, char const*)' <br>

hello.cpp:(.text+0x1c): undefined reference to `std::ostream::operator<<(std::ostream& (*)(std::ostream&))' <br>
/tmp/cc5rZwhV.o: In function `__static_initialization_and_destruction_0(int, int)': <br>

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status <br>
distcc[21053] ERROR: compile hello.cpp on localhost failed <br>
Other information:
This program compiles just fine with g++ and C++. A similar program written in C using printf works with distcc.
Output of $ distcc --version:

Add -lstdc++ to your linker command line (that is, add libstdc++ to your linked libraries explicitly, which normally g++ would do for you).
While you're at it, try icecc as well. I personally prefer it.
