I think it's actually AC_PROG_CXX which is finding g++ and adding those
options to CXXFLAGS. This is very easy to work around - just save and
restore the variable (and probably all the other compiler flag variables
for sanity) around the invocation of AC_PROG_*.

Quite a lot of package configure scripts do this, in order to be able to
turn debugging off properly when doing release builds (i.e. take -g out
and not have it put back in for you).
