I think it doesn't present a big problem for i don't know a single
port that sets up value of CC variable in it's Makefile. Thus, we
have only 3 scenarios:
1) CC is set up on make commandline (e.g. make CC=xxx). In that case
make program will export value of CC to enviropment and every
make program executed will receive it
2) CC is exported to sheel enviropment. This case is obvious.
3) CC was defined in make.conf. In that case if GNU make isn't used
in do-build stage make will re-read make.conf and, thus, honor CC's
value. I think we should not consider GNU make's case - it's used
much less often, than our original make program.
