That's pretty much entirely the wrong way to fix it; or at least it's
inconsistent with the way we handle CFLAGS etc, and doing it this way
would require touching every template not only linux.
I'm thinking that configure.in should handle template CPPFLAGS settings
the same way it handles CFLAGS, ie, command line settings override the
template. Probably LDFLAGS too.
BTW, why do you feel a need to override CPPFLAGS in the first place?
