How do we tell Autoconf to use the specified C++ compiler for all tests?

This might not work properly since Autoconf produces C code for many of its standard tests and the C code might not compile/link cleanly with a C++ compiler. While C++ encompasses C, it is also stricter than ANSI C.

You would need to define CC to be the C++ compiler and hope for the best.
