Yes - I used mingw to compile:
C:> g++ --version
g++ (GCC) 3.2 (mingw special 20020817-1)

My code is very simple:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
  int i;
  for (i=1; i<100; i++) {
    //printf("hello world %i\n",i);
    cout << "hello world " << j << "\n";
  }
}

neither printf nor cout work.
