Hi list,

Is it possible that, although we don't use the C++ compiler, we still depend
on it? See relevant fragment of ./configure:

checking for g++... no
checking for c++... no
checking for gpp... no
checking for aCC... no
checking for CC... CC
                   ^^
checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... no
checking whether CC accepts -g... no
checking dependency style of CC... gcc3
checking how to run the C++ preprocessor... /lib/cpp
                                            ^^^^^^^^
configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
See `config.log' for more details.

It is weird that because of dependencies on unneeded tools, configure now
stops (while it was working before).

Regards,

Olivier
