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. |
