Package: dpkg
Version: 1.19.7
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I use dpkg-buildflags in my continuous integration script, to make
sure my software (rdfind, available in debian) will build ok when the official
rdfind package is built. I count the warnings during build, and error out if
it is nonzero. This works fine in buster.

This will however fail with g++-9, which warns when using 
-Werror=implicit-function-declaration
on C++ programs.

To reproduce:
export DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS="qa=+all"
touch empty.cpp
g++-9 $(dpkg-buildflags --get CXXFLAGS) -c empty.cpp
# outputs a warning from g++

Reading the manpage for dpkg-buildflags, it says CXXFLAGS is the same as 
CFLAGS. I think
that is unfortunate. I would expect CXXFLAGS to be C++ specific.

Thanks,
Paul
