Follow-up Comment #1, sr #110532 (project autoconf):

This (and the matching set of changes to AC_LANG_CALL(C++)) is in fact the
main thing I was thinking of when I wrote in the 2.70 release notes that
"setting CC to a C++ compiler is no longer supported."

That said, I'm not rejecting your patch out of hand, but I would like more
detail on exactly what you did that caused code generated by AC_LANG_CALL(C)
to get processed by a C++ compiler.  If, for instance, there is some obstacle
you're encountering that prevents you from using AC_LANG(C++) in all the right
places, perhaps we should fix _that_ instead.
