This is important for Postgres extensions that are written in C++, such as pg_duckdb, which uses PGXS as the build system currently. In the autotools build, C++ is not coupled to LLVM. If the autotools build is configured without --with-llvm, the C++ compiler and the various flags get persisted into the Makefile.global.
