  This is a bit of a long shot, but I wonder if for some reason there's
a bogus line break being introduced in to the g++ call.  The reason I
say this is that 

-L/home/dan/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.0/Rcpp/lib: 
No such file or directory

  looks like a standard attempt to execute that file rather than an
error from trying to link to a nonexistent library.

  Can you try setting up a minimal g++ example and linking it
with a bogus library directory to see if you get the same error?
