New submission from Eitan Adler <li...@eitanadler.com>:

configure.ac requires explicit configuration for finding the preferred 
compiler. This results in a non-native way of configuring the system, and does 
not actually work on most platforms.

Expected behavior:

CC is used to discover the C compiler; CPP, LD, CXX, etc. are used to discover 
their appropriate tools

Actual: 
--without-gcc or --with-icc must be explicitly passed
