g++ identity crisis, slink



Hi, I'm running slink and I was trying to 'make' some c++ programs I 
was messing around with the other day and discovered that even 
though my Makefile says to use g++, make was using cc to compile 
the programs. /usr/bin/g++ is a program, not a link to anything. If I 
rename /usr/bin/cc, make refuses to run. I did do a make -v to make 
sure it was GNU make, and it is. (someone mentioned to me that this 
might be an issue)

Now, I vaguely remember something in setting up my system that 
might have had something to do with which compiler I liked or wanted 
to be default or something... but it's really hazy and I could be wrong. 
_Is_ there something like that in the debian set-up and, if so, is there a 
way to change/override it?
