It's very simple.

You're using the C compiler front-end to compile and link C++ code.
Don't do that.

You should use the C++ compiler front-end to compile and link C++ code
(especially link!)

  bh> ctkLogTest : ctkLog_test.o
  bh>         gcc -g -o ctkLogTest ctkLog_test.o

  bh> ctkLog_test.o : ctkLog_test.cpp
  bh>         gcc -g -c ctkLog_test.cpp

  bh> clean :
  bh>         rm ctkLog_test ctkLog_test.o

You should be using g++ for both of these commands.

In a makefile you really want to use variables, anyway.
