During emerge xmlwrapp I get the following error:

>>> emerge (1 of 1) dev-libs/xmlwrapp-0.4.4 to /
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) xmlwrapp-0.4.4.tar.gz
>>> Unpacking source...
>>> Unpacking xmlwrapp-0.4.4.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/xmlwrapp-0.4.4/work
 * Applying xmlwrapp-gentoo.diff ...                                                               [ ok ]>>> Source unpacked.
**** your CXX environment variable is not set. xmlwrapp needs this ****
**** variable to find your C++ compiler. Please set it to the path ****
**** to your compiler and re-run configure.pl. Thanks.             ****


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge xmlwrapp

Actual Results:  
xmlwrapp does not build

Expected Results:  
It should build smoothly

When the call is changed to

CXX=g++ emerge xmlwrapp

the build runs without problems. But this should not be necessary. 
The builds system should take care of the required settings.
