Ok, I've looked into it a little deeper: It's not the CXXFLAGS, it's simply 
the check not knowing about the existence of libiberty, and g++ does not seem 
to link it by default (gcc does?).

Any suggestions how to deal with this? I'm thinking of simply adding a 
AC_CHECK_LIB(iberty,mkstemps) to KDE_CHECK_MISC, what do you think?
