As Sam Ravnborg kindly pointed out, you're using make variables
and I am trying to give the respect to the environment variables.

And the real problem is that one (for example, me) can try to
build Git with the different compiler than CC (gccX or icc, for
example).  And it is much better for lazy people to do 'export
CC=whatever' once and then fire make any number of times ;))

Answering Sam: yes, with my patch it is easier to inherit the
variables from the environment.  But it is not clear if it is
good or bad ;))

But anyway, this patch is only my suggestion, and it can be
thrown away :)
