The easiest way is to export the FC variable with the name of the
compiler before any call to cmake. It just has to be in the path, so
you do not have to worry about specifying the absolute filename.

Absolutely. Those need to be separate build directories, one for each
different compiler/settings. Remember that you can have as many of
these as you want.
