perhaps - but noting that this was a recent change, and that undoing
it will break what I was fixing in September, I'm looking for details
on what broke in the configuration which your change addresses.

Specifically, what I _was_ fixing was a configuration which lacked a workable
C++ cross-compiler.

That was this change:

20140913                                                                        
        + add a configure check to ignore some of the plethora of non-working   
          C++ cross-compilers.

Oddly enough, I had a different fix (unrelated to the above) which is in
the same area only a week later:

20140920
        + remove special logic from CF_INCLUDE_DIRS which adds the directory
          for the --includedir from the build (report by Joakim Tjernlund).
