CXXFLAGS and linking

[William S Fulton]

I see that CXXFLAGS and AM_CXXFLAGS gets passed to the linker ($CXXLINK). This doesn't seem correct as the C++ flags aren't necessarily appropriate for linking. This isn't consistent with the per-program xxxx_CXXFLAGS which do not get passed to the linker. Is this all as intended?

Cheers
