I have used arm-elf-gcc at many times with Cstartup.S and Windows
Program must run under ARM.
When have tried change c to c++ caused this error:

etc. etc.
common functions seems missing.
I have read some issues like this but cannot find a solution. Any ideas?

... so you are not "Starter"... I realy like real names or at least
names that sound like real names. Anyway.

So how about just providing a function with this name. I used this code
in my few C++ Examples:

void abort(void)
{
  while(1);
}

Excuse me - my name is well-known in my surroundings and I don't like
fake "real" names. Please, leave me some privacy.

I think this is not solution here. There are many functions like this
(not only "abort") and these maybe needed. I think this is a compiler
(linker) internal error and caused by library search mismatch. I can
turn this error on and off simply use one (1) expression: queue. If use,
it occurs this error.

Why? What do you expect as "solution"? Since you do not have a system to
abort to there is not much you can do in this syscall. Of cause some
additional code can be implemented here (blink LED, send debug-output,
watchdog-reset...)

You did not mention the names so it's difficult to help here. I guess
the missing functions are the usual syscall which the libstdc++ relies
on to interface with he hardware (sbrk, read, write, etc).

I'm pretty sure that there is no "compiler (linker) internal error".
Maybe a search-problem a something with library-ordering. But not an
internal error.

Which queue? From the c++ (ST)-library? This should be the reason why
the syscalls are needed and you see the linker-errors. Since the c++-
RTL queue needs some syscalls, at least sbrk as interface to the heap.
In some configurations you may try -lnosys to bring in a "generic" sbrk
without writing own code (take care to provide end, see linker-script).

You are right in here but there are another functions.

Yes. These ones, isatty and other file functions. No files, op. system
and terminal at this system of course.

-lnosys exists but has no effect.

I have get an advice to implement my own queue. Is there an only
solution - or write fake calls like fread, and all others?
Is there any example program without these functions?

I have thought programmers of libraries solved this problem at any way.
