Shouldn't that be the focus of a different patch? Maybe
$predep_objects and $postdep_objects are empty for aCC on HP-UX and
cxx on Tru64 UNIX as well? I'd rather see this patch encompass only
the required changes to affect adding -lCstd -lCrun and leave the rest
for another patch where $predep_objects and $postdep_objects would be
removed for all CXX tags. I'd kinda rather them remain as it makes
less difference between the CXX tags.
