Other clues I should have emphasized are that pure C and pure Fortran simple
cases have no language interference issues at all.  Also if you combine C
and Fortran but exclude C++ for PLplot builds and tests, there are no such
language interference issues, and the tests look like they are working fine.
So it appears that something is being done in the pure CXX case to trigger
the Fortran interference that is unique compared to the pure C and pure
Fortran cases.
