Probably something like update-alternatives is the cleaner way than doing
any symlinking by hand, but the question is: Does the platform in question
have something like that? Anyway I think that providing the ability to
specify all build tools explicitly if needed without any platform tweaks or
PATH kung-fu is preferable. We do it for CXX etc., too (like in 'make
CXX='blahblah' ia32'), and it is very handy for packagers, I think.
