I may be wrong, but i think the reason of cpptasks is not maintainable because 
it tries to know too much.  If I am going to convert it to M2 mojo, i will just
try to make it to replace 'make' functionality and leave the 
compiler and linker settings to the user.

After that, we may have ton of independent add-ins (MOJO) for compiler
specifics.

thoughts?
