You are using a different compiler in essence, so it should be identified by $CC. > I guess it has the advantage of not needing to set LDFLAGS as well. Yes, that's the main point. It will make sure the right compiler is used independent of the use of $CFLAGS or $LDFLAGS. For example, you don't have to think about -m32 if you want to override CFLAGS temporally.
