Subject: gh-148294: Make configure find g++ correctly (GH-148298)
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb/index.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c613f72eeef83340cb369287f7c1a195e086d1d5;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git

gh-148294: Make configure find g++ correctly (GH-148298)

The `AC_PATH_TOOL` calls had included a duplicated argument, causing a "`PATH`"
consisting of `notfound` to be searched instead of `$PATH`.
