What compiler will be used if gcc and g++ are not in the path? Presumably, this will only work if CC and CXX are set to proper compilers, right? Doesn't it make sense to: 4) check for gcc and g++ except when CC and/or CXX are set, in which case, check for CC and CXX ?? I'm probably missing something... haven't looked at prereq in a while.
