Looks like you've forgotten to link a library.

Search LQ for gxx_personality gives this

Google for gxx_personality undefined gives many links

e.g. http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2007-05/msg00127.html

I'm not a C++ coder, but it seems to be related to C++. Therefore maybe g++ instead of gcc will do the trick.
