All the other configure options were recently changed /from/ libstdc++
to libstdcxx, at the request of toplevel maintainers.  I happen to agree
with it, but even if I didn't, it was made for valid reasons.

(IIRC, there are shells which have problems expanding and parsing things
like "${enable_hosted_libstdc+++set}", which is what the corresponding
++-style variable would be called.)
