I'm not suggesting sorcery uses the environment variable CC.
My point is a -cc style option that tells sorcery "use this c compiler,
m'fer" is:
a) more flexible (saves future "tcc support in sorcery", "uclibc support in
sorcery" requests)
b) no extra effort to implement if you need to put dietlibc stuff in the gcc
wrapper already

This is a nice point, and raises the question whether any kind of support is
called for in sorcery. I'd say it's still useful as the wrapper solution
doesn't
require the end user to know what kind of the build system the package uses
(at
this point, they might aswell just custom build it themselvels and delve the
install). Though I guess it might even be hard to guarentee a wrapper script
solution will work with all build systems (does scons ignore even PATH?).

Upstream default is to install in /opt/diet. But yes, /opt/diet/bin/diet is
designed to be dropped somewhere in the path.
