Include lib.mk before consuming $(CC) and document that lib.mk overwrites
$(CC) unless make was invoked with -e or $(CC) was specified after make
(which apparently makes the environment override the Makefile?!?!).
Including lib.mk after using it for probing, e.g. for -no-pie, can lead
to weirdness.
