The code below is not a valid C++ program.

This should be

#include <stdio.h>

or

#include <cstdio>

This should be

int main() {

That's compiler-specific. Apparently some kinds of objects declared
either in <stdio.h> or implicitly by the compiler require a whole bunch
of other libraries (possibly all being part of the standard library) to
resolve some other symbols they use. That is not defined by the language
itself. Actually, how libraries are presented at linking (and whether
there indeed is 'linking') is not specified.

Somebody in a g++ newsgroup should be able to. Your question has really
nothing to do with the language and everything to do with a particular
compiler. Please refer to gnu.g++.help newsgroup.
