Possibly there are conflicts, but that's why they're named 
IMESH_CXXFLAGS instead of CXXFLAGS.  Same with the _LIBS and _INCLUDES 
variables.

Also, regarding IMESH_LIBS, keep in mind that although you compile your 
implementation with a C++ compiler, the application may not be.  It's a 
relatively easy thing to get the libraries being linked automatically by 
the C++ command, and add those to the link line.  That way the 
application doesn't have to write a custom C++ main to start using the 
itaps interfaces.
