It's not a C++ program. You should use `cc', not `g++'.

The snprintf() function is what's causing you trouble in this line:
snprintf(buf,4,"%c%c%c%c",0xff,0x00,0x01,0);
As I said to Paul, in personal email messages, when there is a structure that
the serial data has to conform too, I usually prefer using explicitly named
fields in structs, temporary buffers, and memcpy() or plain assignments
instead of printf()-family functions.
#define SERVO_CMD_MAXBUF 4
struct servo_cmd {
unsigned char sc_id;
unsigned char sc_cmd;
unsigned char sc_arg;
};
int
servo_cmd_send(struct servo_cmd *sp)
{
unsigned char buf[SERVO_CMD_MAXBUF];
buf[0] = sp->sc_id;
buf[1] = sp->sc_cmd;
buf[2] = sp->sc_arg;
buf[3] = '\0'; /* Command end char. */
...
}
