Well one can do that, yes, but by default any configure script is going to
look for g++ first, find an ancient g++4.2 installed in /usr/bin/g++ and
use that unless the user specifically sets CC. I'm a bit fuzzy on the
timeline of FreeBSD's transition to clang over the last few years and so
was hop
You might want to ask over in the ports... Since the ports system has a good
mechanism for specifying a good compiler to use.
I'm not sure that your approach will actually work, since it is a bit too
fuzzy, but I'm sure others who know better will fill this in...

Some application software I use seems to prefer ancient gcc release or
gcc46 from ports rather than clang.
Is there a recommended autoconf recipe for third party software to use the
right compilers across FreeBSD versions?
