Won't that cause problems in software that inherits Makefile
settings from a parent directory which is not C++? What about if a
parent is C++ program and the child directory is a C (or, hell,
Fortran) library for it?

Sure, you could probably do PROG_CXX+=3DPROG ... and so forth, but
that means (theoretically) having to add a lot of variable settings
that were previously presumed.

Or is this more easily solved?
