I tried changing the "if ASIO" section in pd/Makefile.am to this:

if ASIO
EXTRA_SUBDIRS += asio
# automake hack to force linking with g++
lib_LTLIBRARIES = libdummy.la
libdummy_la_SOURCES =
# Dummy C++ source to cause C++ linking.
nodist_EXTRA_libdummy_la_SOURCES = dummy.cxx
endif

And it did indeed switch to using g++, but for compiling too, and that  
triggers the same issue.  It seems that you can't compile portaudio  
WMME with g++, and the current build system is using g++ by default.  
So I think we actually need the opposite than that solution. If we  
include the ASIO files, automake switches to g++.  So we need to force  
portaudio to always be built using gcc.  Anyone have any ideas there?
