Integrating hylafaxplus into yocto

Good day all

I've been having fun integrating hylafax+ into yocto using a bitbake
recipe.  The problem is the non standard way it requires for running the
compiler.  On buildroot we could just use
arm-none-linux-gnueabi-cpp
but for yocto the compiler is
arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-g++
but also requires the following fields:
-march=armv7-a -marm -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=hard -mcpu=cortex-a5
--sysroot=/home/cl/workspace/yokto/poky/build-microchip/tmp/work/cortexa5hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi/hylafaxplus/5.5.9-r0/recipe-sysroot.

The problem is that you cannot call the compiler without the flags and
passing the flags to all the compiler check and make check functions has
proven to be a bit of a hassle.

I have been able to fix the compiler functions by doing something like this:
checkCompiler()
{
    compiler=$1

*shift    compilerParams=$@*
    if isGNU $compiler; then
    ISGXX=yes
    checkGCCVersion $compiler 2 6 1 || return 1
    else
    ISGXX=no
    fi
    $RM dummy dummy.o
    capture $compiler *${compilerParams}* -o dummy dummy.C && {
    CXX="$compiler *${compilerParams}"*;
    test -z "${CXXCOMPILER:-}" && CXXCOMPILER*1*=`findApp $compiler $PATH`
    *CXXCOMPILER="${CXXCOMPILER1} ${compilerParams}";*
    return 0
    }
    return 1
}

Something similar for the gcc checks.  Now I'm having issues with the make
part.  I can try and fix that as well, but I'm wondering if I'm not doing
something wrong as I'm not to schooled with configure.

calling configure like follows (added newlines just to make reading easier):
./configure
--with-CC="arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc -march=armv7-a -marm -mfpu=neon
-mfloat-abi=hard -mcpu=cortex-a5

Currently stuck a if it makes a difference)t:

|
| #include <iostream>
| int main(){ std::cout << "Hello World!" << std::endl; return 0;}
| ----------------------------------------------------------
|
| Usually this is because you do not have a standard C++ library

| (For recent gcc releases this is libstdc++, for older gcc - libg++)

Kind regards
