Also, if the answer is "yes": do we really need a c++ linker here? My understanding from reading "git log -SCXX Makefile" is that when using oss-fuzz, you'd sometimes want to pass c++ specific things in FUZZ_CXXFLAGS. But we're not using that here, and are just making sure that things can be linked. Can we just use $(CC) by default here, then?
