glibc-2.7 and gcc-4.2.2 install on redhat 3 u 9 - x86_64

[Lamont, Brian-p3354c]

Hello,
I'm trying to install gcc-4.2.2, and It appeared to install ok, but cannot compile the hello program below.  I'm not very skilled at troubleshooting these installs, so forgive me if something is obvious.  The C Program error below was thought by a developer in my area to be possibly missing glibc.   So I began installing glibc.  It errors (below) because the linker does not support a -z option for "relro".   I have binutils-2.15 installed.  Let me know of any other helpful info I can provide.

OS: Redhat Ent. Linux 3 updt 9
kernel: 2.4.21-50

#  gcc hello.c
hello.c:1:22: error: iostream.h: No such file or directory
hello.c:2: error: expected â=â, â,â, â;â, âasmâ or â__attribute__â before ânamespaceâ
hello.c: In function âmainâ:
hello.c:3: error: âcoutâ undeclared (first use in this function)
hello.c:3: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
hello.c:3: error: for each function it appears in.)

c program to test gcc-4.2.2
---------------------------
# cat hello.c

#include <iostream.h>
using namespace std;
int main () { cout << "hello world\n"; return 0;}
