Your assumption is wrong in two ways:  For one, changes to configuration 
are not generally picked up reliably by a remake (so the common 
understanding is that one needs to `make clean` or even `make distclean` 
when chaning configuration).  For another, the failure happened when 
running a test (against already compiled code), not when compiling code.

(Plus, I'm not sure whether passing ENVCFLAGS[CXX] to mnake actually 
works as intended; I at least never use it and instead add any relevant 
flags directly to CC and CXX passed to configuration; but I don't know, 
and ENVCFLAGS[CXX] may actually work fine.)

The relevant git branches are libreoffice-6-3 (for ongoing development 
of LO 6.3.x) and libreoffice-6-3-0 (for development towards LO 6.3.0), 
and the git tag libreoffice-6.3.0.3 (for latest LO 6.3.0 RC3).
