Well, CC=gcc was the intention, no idea how I mixed that up. BTW, where
does cc-for-target come from and why doesn’t a simple string suffice?

It comes from (guix utils). It suffices when compiling natively, but not when cross-compiling, because when cross-compiling to TARGET, you need the cross-compiler TARGET-gcc to produce the right binaries. (cc-for-target) emits "gcc" when compiling natively and "TARGET-gcc" when cross-compiling.

Not hardcoding a particular compiler (gcc or clang) would also help to allow --with-c-toolchain to override the compiler to use (see https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=47648), though not all the right bits are in the right places yet for that to work.
