                   ^^^^^^
Since nobody replied, I'll take a stab at it.  Shouldn't the above line be

ocamlc -I ../lib -cc g++ -custom -o testcomp com.cmo comcomp.o component.o component.cmo testcomponent.cmo ../runtime/libcamlidl.a

at least?  All of the errors below look like they stem from the fact that
"cc" is used to compile C++ code (newer GCCs are stricter in this regard).

BTW, "cpp" is the C preprocessor, not the C++ compiler -- why do you think
its version is relevant?
HTH,
