I think Bruno's command line was more correct. -m32 is essential to
the identity of the compiler and should be in CC.

Are you sure? type should only be used when CC is not set and
configure is searching for a default compiler..

What does it give?

Yes, that may be a good idea, although we'll need to test for
accepting -m32. Some gcc versions probably don't support it.

I think having anything before the "$@" will break some oddball gcc
options that need to be first. Can it be after "$@"?
