Comment(by drkirkby):
There's a fair amount of Sage which will build with the Sun compiler, and
I hope to increase that, so please don't do anything that will screw up if
cc is not gcc.
Note there are two shell scripts $SAGE_LOCAL/bin/testcc.sh and
$SAGE_LOCAL/bin/testcxx.sh which actually check what the compilers are,
and does this withougt making assumptions based on their name. They
compile a simple program (written inline) which checks what preprocessor
variables are defined.
I certainly would not assume a failure to link cc to gcc was a bug on any
machine.
With my fathers funeral in a few days, I'm not really in the mode for
detailed analysis of this, but my initial feelings are I would leave well
alone.
