That was for building u-boot... Currently the kernel build script does
not parse the environment variable CC.. I suppose it "could" with some
patches written, but today NOPE..

So if you want to bypass the pre-choosen compiler you need to open
"system.sh" and see the examples, then correctly add your's..

#ARM GCC CROSS Compiler:
#if CC is not set, a known working linaro based gcc compiler will be
downloaded and utilized.
#CC=<enter full path>/bin/arm-none-eabi-
#CC=<enter full path>/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-
#CC=<enter full path>/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-

It has some error detection, so if you don't properly set the
path/etc, it will just default to the build-in version..
