'yum list all | grep g++' gave me nothing as did 'rpm --whatprovides g++'.
I don't understand why these things aren't smarter about all this.
configure.log shows that it continually tries to use 'g++', so why isn't it
easier to get 'g++'? I would think that 'yum install g++' would come back
with "Oh, you probably want gcc-c++ which contains g++".
yum whatprovides g++
