At least, that way it is robust to any future change in autoconf, which
could set it to "no" or "none" or whatever; it w
When a C++ compiler is not found, then AC_PROG_CXX will set CXX to
'false'.
However, we test that we can find $CXX, and idneed false exists in
the PATH, for virtually all systems we have a chance to be compiled
on. So we conclude that we do have a C++ compiler, when this is
clearly wrong.
