Please back this out.  You are removing the ability to use an external
C++ compiler.

Setting CXX=/usr/bin/c++ is bad advice -- if it was usable we would not
be in the situation we are in now.

I envision users to set CXX=/usr/local/bin/g++31, as that is the C++
compiler Ports now uses.  The only gotcha is needing to have gperf
already installed on a system.  Would you be able to add a test for the
existance of gperf before trying to build src/gnu/usr.bin/cc/cc1plus?
It would have to test for the existance of /usr/bin/gperf (for older
systems that have this from Gcc 2.95 days; and
${.OBJDIR}/<somehwere>/gperf for the CXX=g++31 case).
