Doing everything as root is not a great idea.

CXX is just supposed to name the compiler to use.  You should put 
options in the CXXFLAGS variable.  However, if you're going to be 
sharing this source with anyone else, it may be as well to define 
CXXFLAGS in the Makefile so that they don't have to go through this. 
(Though that assumes they will also be using g++.)
