So just adding for CXX what's already there for CC? Makes sense to me!

Um... no idea, sorry. Did I do this? :->

OK, IC - KDE1 sure is some sort of a big test. :-)
BTW, are your KDE2 pkgs available somewhere? I'm dying to see KDE2, but
when compiling at home things didn't work out too well (duplicate defined
function, etc.), and I don't really feel like diving into that code,
esp. when I know you already did it.

They're currently stopped. I'm waiting for 1.5 to get finally out so I can
do another full run, without having to downgrade my pkgsrc first. Maybe I
shouldn't wait and do a full build with pkgsrc-current when 1.5 is finally
out...
