distutils does not find g++ on Fedora 20

[Brad Bell]

Sorry I am not able to directly reply to messages. I had my mail set in 
digest mode without mine formatting.

You can find more information about my experiments on this problem at
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2014-October/203774.html
Note that if I put the location of cc1plus in my path, the setup.py 
script worked.

I was not able to fix the Fedora-20 system in questions, so I backed up 
my files and did did a fresh install. Thus I do not have copy for 
further testing.
