yeah. I just use AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM now.

done, thanks,

hmm. well, i noticed the AC_PROG_CXX stuff requires libstdc++: so does 
AC_PROG_CXXCPP.... obviously, this is less useful to me as I'm concerned 
with the building of said libstdc++

:)

what i was doing (in another context) to get around this was

gcc -x c++ to test the c++ compiler, and

g++ to test the c++ compiler and library.

Anyway. It would be cool if there could be a 

AC_PROG_CXX
AC_PROG_LIBSTDCXX

so I could use the standard autocont macros in libstdc++'s configure 
scripts...
