Comment (by bernicecarisa@…):

 Setting the CC, CXX and CPP environment variables at configure time is all
 that most software needs in order to use the compiler we want. But some
 ports have unusual configure scripts that don't obey these settings, and
 some ports don't have a configure script at
 all[http://www.alwaysreview.net/reviews/apple-customer-service/ .] For
 such ports, it can be necessary to set the variables at build time:

 build.args-append
                          CC=${configure.cc} \
                         CXX=${configure.cxx} \
                         CPP=${configure.cpp}

 Unless you look closely at the build output in debug mode, it can be hard
 to know whether a port is using ${configure.cc} as it should. Here is one
 way to make it obvious:

     Create a directory /opt/local/bin/no_default_gcc
     Create a script in that directory called "cc" that always prints an
 error message
     Create symlinks "c++", "cpp", "g++", and "gcc", all pointing to the
 "cc" script
     Edit the value of "binpath" in /opt/local/etc/macports/macports.conf
 so that it begins with "/opt/local/bin/no_default_gcc:"
