If LOCAL.config is a shell script, then the shell interprets "CC9=gcc"
as setting a shell variable named CC9 to gcc, and -m32 as the name of
an executable file to run.  For example:

; CC9='gcc -m32' echo $CC9
gcc -m32

In the shell, you have to use quotes when you have a space in a
variable's value.  In makefiles you don't.
