Subject: [PATCH] configure, meson: move C++ compiler detection to meson.build
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The test is slightly weaker than before, because it does not
call an extern "C" function from a C source file.  However,
in practice what we seek to detect is ABI compatibility of the
various sanitizer flags, and for that it is enough to compile
anything with CC and link it with CXX.
