Looking at the compiler commands executed by make below, only the
USR_CFLAGS are used when compiling c files, but the CXXFLAGS are
ignored.
USR_CFLAGS is used when compiling .c files to .o
USR_CXXFLAGS is used when compling .cpp/.cxx/.cc flags to .o
USR_LDFLAGS is used when linking .o files together into executables or
libraries.
It's the latter (link) stage that is failing in your build. Your first
command is a compilation of a C file, which succeeds:

The next command is actually using g++ to link object files into a
library (libCom.so.3.17.5), it isn't actually compiling anything, so
it doesn't get given your $(USR_CXXFLAGS):
/opt/iseg/cross-compiler/sysroots/x86_64-angstromsdk-linux/usr/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-g++

The last command breaks because the --sysroot option is missing and
the compiler doesn't find it's libraries.
Did I do something wrong? What is the correct way to define default C
compiler and C++ compiler flags when cross-compiling?
You didn't set a variable to provide the linker flags needed for your
build. Following your other settings that would be USR_LDFLAGS, but I
would recommend that you actually set these variables instead:
ARCH_DEP_CFLAGS = <your USR_CFLAGS value above>
The ARCH_DEP_CXXFLAGS variable defaults to $(ARCH_DEP_CFLAGS) so you
don't need to set this at all.
ARCH_DEP_LDFLAGS = <flags to pass to g++ when using it as a linker>
I'm suggesting you use the ARCH_DEP_ flags instead of the USR_ ones
because some application Makefiles may override the USR_ variables
instead of just appending to them, which would cause your builds to fail.
Hope this helps,
- Andrew
