This is definitely a nice improvement! Sometimes the issue also extends
to AR and LD for instance.

This has been discussed here[1]. Maybe we should deal with that directly
in the build system, and provide suitable default values for CC, AR, LD
& friends, when cross-compiling.

Anyway, your patch is already a big improvement and it LGTM.

Thanks,

Mathieu
