Summary: configuring without C++ compiler name

Initial Comment:
If you check out a clean copy of Python 2.1 on a 
Solaris 5.8 machine, and run:

    ./configure -with-cxx

rather than:

    ./configure -with-cxx=g++

It generates a makefile with "CXX=yes", so "make" 
produces:
 
    bash-2.03$ make
    yes -c -g -O2 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -I. \
        -I./Include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H \
        -o Modules/ccpython.o \
        ./Modules/ccpython.cc
    make: yes: Command not found
