I see at least one *.cc file in the tree, so how would that work if the configure stuff is removed?
Also, the ccmod interface (as opposed to cmod) is obviously very convenient when writing glues for C++ libs.
Is it needed?
I only see "vcdiff_wrapper" in "post_modules" which hardly seems needed in all occasions.
Can it be made optional? I.e. don't bail out completely if it doesn't work, but allow compilation of ccmods if it does work... Or rather, should the test be moved to the configure scripts of the modules that need a C++ compiler?
Moving the test to the module that needs a C++ compiler sounds like the correct solution to me.
