How about simply using an environnement variable such as CC ? The user |
16 |
would set it in /etc/make.conf as he already does with CFLAGS and |
17 |
friends. But he would propably do the following instead : |
18 |
|
19 |
CC=tcc; CFLAGS=-g; emerge stuff |
20 |
|
21 |
CC would even allow to have multiple GCC version to choose from |
22 |
(right?). And the best from a maintainer point of view: no |
23 |
ebuild-specific work required. |
