Digging a little deeper, I find that config/Makefile.pre.in and config/makesetup both have references to CCC that account for the references in my Makefile. Unfortunately, my knowledge doesnt yet stretch to knowing exactly where these files come from :-)

The Makefile.pre.in is probably from Misc/Makefile.pre.in, which has a reference to $(CCC); Modules/Makefile.pre.in is more up to date and uses (CXX).Modules/makesetupalsorefersto(CXX). Modules/makesetup also refers to (CXX).Modules/makesetupalsorefersto(CCC), and probably needs to be changed to use $(CXX), matching Modules/Makefile.pre.in.

Given that we want to encourage the use of the Distutils, Misc/Makefile.pre.in should be deleted to avoid having people use it.
