commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=bc61e52ae5f8f6983c2033156df8bced12a0284a
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/2022.02.x

pamtester uses an archaic configure.in with archaic constructs. This
had generated a configure script that incorrectly tries to look for and
validate a C++ compiler:

    checking for powerpc64le-buildroot-linux-gnu-g++... no
    checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... no
    checking whether no accepts -g... no
    checking how to run the C++ preprocessor... /lib/cpp
    configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check

Calling autoreconf fixes the issue, as the generated configure no longer
tries to look for a C++ compiler at all anymore.

Fixes:
