Technically this just happens to work by accident because CC_O and
CXX_O get the same value, which is probably fine for all C++ compilers
we currently support.
set_ccvars always uses the _cc_o variable to set whatever namespace
you requested (_cxx_o is never used), so you could remove the _cxx_o
handling from probe_cc entirely and it would still work.

Full CXX probing through probe_cc would be the most complete solution,
but probably overkill?
