So `g++` should be checked before `c++`, since we know we will get gcc in the first case, but not the second. If we search for `CC` in the path but finds `cc`, then there is a bug in how `UTIL_REQUIRE_PROGS` looks up stuff in the path. Feel free to investigate and/or fix. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/12558
