Because the machine I build klibc on might be different to the one
where I want to run klcc.

Specifically, klcc in Debian is broken right now because it has
/usr/local/bin/ as path for CC - even though I still need to
investigate how this happened since there shouldn't be a gcc in
/usr/local/bin.  So while I'm aware we need to fix that on our side,
I still think putting hardcoded paths in the script is generally a bad
idea.
