The path setting will not be sufficient, while setting the compiler
preferenc at make time is not the most convenient way I can imagine,
although it is absolutely valid. If I recall the way that tcpd compiles,
you will need to modify the CC= value in /usr/share/lib/make/make.rules,
which defines the default compiler as a system global value. You make
also find that the makefile for tcpd includes a compiler definition for
the compiler. I recommend including gcc in your path and then defining
your compiler for your system and the makefile in question if that value
is included already. If you don't really have a compelling reason to make
cc the default, I would note that gcc tends to provide much more
consistent results for many internet package compiles and that having gcc
as the default will save you much frustration.
If memory serves, tcpd shouldn't require an individual compiler
definition, although tripwire and some of the COAST projects do.
