[C++-sig] Problems importing a c++ shared library

[t_spens]

ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (initlibhello) - I
have no idea why I'm getting this error.

I'm using gcc to create my library libhello.so from the .cpp file below
Here are my gcc arguments:
gcc -g -Wall -I ../../../usr/include/boost -I ../../../usr/include/python2.5
-c hello.cpp -o hello.o
gcc -shared -fPIC -g -Wall -I ../../../usr/include/boost -I
../../../usr/include/python2.5 -L /usr/lib -lstdc++ -lboost_python -o
libhello.so hello.o

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void print(char * stringToPrint){cout << stringToPrint << endl;}
int main ()
{
        print("hello from c++");
        return 0;
}
#include <boost/python.hpp>
using namespace boost::python;
BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(hello)
{
        def("print", print);
}

~/pythonScripts$ python
Python 2.5.1c1 (release25-maint, Apr 12 2007, 21:00:25) 
[GCC 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)] on linux2

>>> import libhello
Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (initlibhello)

Any ideas?
