 Then something else is going on which you are not telling us about.
 Please repeat the second compilation -- the one that fails -- with -v -H
 tacked onto the command line; that should give some clues.

 Unable to reproduce this -
 
 $ cat > test.cc
 #include <string>
 #include <iostream>
 
 using namespace std;
 
 int main()
 {
   string hi = "Paul";
   cout << "Hello " << hi << endl;
 }
 $ g++ test.cc -o string ; echo $?
 0
 $ g++ test.cc -o string ; echo $?
 0
 
 I suspect you neglected to mention that you had -I. on your command
 line, which is specifically asking for fireworks under these
 conditions.
 
 It would be sensible for cpplib to detect '\177ELF' at the beginning
 of a file and abandon processing it, so as to avoid flooding the
 user's terminal with unhelpful error messages.  (That string cannot
 appear at the beginning of a well-formed C/C++ source file.)  But it
 would still be an error.

 Nope. Compiled it exactly as I wrote.

 Hi,
 
 /* test.cpp */
 
 #include <string>
 #include <iostream>
 
 using namespace std;
 
 int main()
 {
   string hi = "Paul";
   cout << "Hello " << hi << endl;
 }
 
 g++ test.cpp -o string
 
 Compiles fine.
 
 Change "Paul" to "Phil" (say), recompile and watch the fireworks!

    How... interesting.  That sounds like a preprocessor problem,so the source code (specifically the '#include' statements in it) might be useful here.
