hi Frank, hi list,

So here's my call to you developers:

1.) Please don't redefine CC and CXX! There's absolutely no need to. 2.) Please don't use non-standard variables like $(CPLUSPLUS)!

It makes building the externals muchmuch easier.

Thank you for your attentention.

I sometimes use alternate compilers in my projects (not yet for pd)... would it be acceptable to do something like:

CXX ?= g++-3.2

... that ought to let environment variables through, but still allow single-external builds without messing with the environment or 'configure' arguments...
