In light of the recent addition of ${FFLAGS} to ${CONFIGURE_ENV}, I
think it's also desirable to add the following variables as well:
CPPFLAGS
CXXFLAGS
as both are also used by GNU configure if they are defined in the
environment. We current define:
CFLAGS
FFLAGS
LDFLAGS
in ${CONFIGURE_ENV}. Quite a lot of packages already do:
CONFIGURE_ENV+= CPPFLAGS="${CPPFLAGS}"
and several C++ packages do the same with CXXFLAGS. I'm unsure as to
why they aren't part of ${CONFIGURE_ENV} already. Can anyone recall
why?
Thanks,
