[PATCH] [wayland] configure: better check for the C++ compiler

[Yann E. MORIN]

When a C++ compiler is not found, then AC_PROG_CXX will set CXX to
'false'.

However, we test that we can find $CXX, and idneed false exists in
the PATH, for virtually all systems we have a chance to be compiled
on. So we conclude that we do have a C++ compiler, when this is
clearly wrong.

Improve our hack by trying to run the C++ compiler with a benign call,
that should succeed if the CXX is really a C++ compiler: tell it to dump
its pre-defined macros.

Note: this is not a replacement for the patch I sent earlier [0].
It is complementary.
