Is it really that fuzzy about the wording? Why don't you copy'n'paste
the *exact* phrase into the mail???

To set the environment variable CC to a working compiler in a bourne
compatible shell you can do:
CC="/path/to/your/c-compiler"
export CC
You need to have a working C compiler installed on your system in
order to compile GCC. For instance you can use GCC.
What kind of distribution are you using? Redhat, SuSE? Why don't you
install a prepackaged binary version for your distribution? Do you
really need to compile GCC yourself?
