Change the default value of CC from gcc to cc to be more appropriate for modern day mix of compilers. On GCC based OS's cc -> gcc. On Clang based OS's cc -> clang. FreeBSD / OpenBSD have switched to Clang and this corrects building with the proper compiler on OS's using Clang as the default compiler. This especially matters for the necessity for TLS on OpenBSD. I would expect this affects OpenMandriva and other Linux OS's using Clang as well.
