This needs fixing to add support for the Sun Studio compilers.

Bill Hart reported on 27th September that:

''I've added this to a FLINT todo list and will attend to it in the next release.

Thanks for mentioning it.

Bill.''

I will chase this up, to find out if it is fixed or not.

$CC and $CXX have to be quoted.

Note that the issue is (at least partially) fixed upstream in FLINT 1.5.2 IIRC; I already made an spkg with various other changes (including the Makefile) a while ago btw. ... (cf. discussion at #9858)
