It sounds like you selectively picked things to install and missed an
important piece. If you didn't install the w32api package, you need to
do this. This should create the missing /usr/lib/libuser32.a file.
If you did install it then you have another problem. The command:
gcc -v hello.cc -o hello
may show what the problem is.
