Matt,

I don't know where the gdal library gets put, perhaps /usr/lib/gdal?

If so, it might help to do:

  g++ -I/usr/include/gdal hillshade.cpp -L/usr/lib/gdal -lgdal -o hillshade

You might also find the following works for you:

  g++ `gdal-config --cflags` hillshade.cpp -o hillshade `gdal-config --libs`

Best regards,
