Corollary: the test driver may not be called CXXCOMPILE.  General:
For extension `.ext', we cannot use `EXTCOMPILE' as driver.
 ext_COMPILE or
 extCOMPILE

seem awkward to me too, as these do not allow for generalization
either, and the notational difference would be unintuitive (or even
dangerous, think of preprocessed Fortran with .F extension).
What else comes to mind?
 EXTTESTCOMPILE
 EXT_TESTCOMPILE
 EXT_TEST_COMPILE
 EXTLOGCOMPILE
 EXT_LOGCOMPILE
 EXT_LOG_COMPILE

I vote for the last one. Maybe COMPILER instead of COMPILE, and have the COMPILER + FLAGS go into COMPILE.

Maybe we should depart from COMPILE/COMPILER bw. I like it, but it might be misleading. Maybe CONVERT/TRANSLATE or something more general that COMPILE? Or FROM_EXT_TO_LOG. Not so nice :(
