Actually, after looking at the switch statement (which tests for GCC version 
4.4* and 4.8*) it seems redundant to check whether it is a clang compiler. LLVM 
GCC frontend and Clang announce themselves as version 4.2.1 and that will 
probably stay that way, so I think we are good for now with the 'gcc' to 
'${CC}' change.
If you still think we should have the clang check, I do have a patch ready with 
that included.
