Description:
4.0's configure test to see if CXX=gcc does not allow for a full path to gcc, causing it to avoid the necessary defines (-DDEFINE_CXA_PURE_VIRTUAL, etc).

How to repeat:
CXX=/full/path/to/gcc
configure
examine CXXFLAGS

Suggested fix:
Backport 4.1's test (which greps $CXX for gcc) to 4.0.
