The problem is now gone after I got CGAL working so I guess an #ifdef
HAS_CGAL is needed somewhere in the C++ function test. I'm not sure
where to add it so I leave that to someone else.

BTW, the problem with CGAL was resolved by removing GMP 4.2.4 and
build GMP 4.3.1 instead. I also had to apply Harish's dorsal patch and
turn off PDB in CGAL.
