So it looks these settings affect the compile phase but not the built
phase, right? In particular CC...

Could it be a problem with either setuptools or distutils? At the top
of setup.py there is a stanza like:

try:
    from setuptools import setup, Extension
except ImportError:
    from distutils.core import setup, Extension

Could you try forcing one of the two, and see if it a bug in one of
these build tool?

Also see some answers here, I think they point towards some sort of
solution: <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5967065/python-distutils-not-using-correct-version-of-gcc>.
Looking at that it seems "compiler_so" gets chosen wrongly. You could
take a look at 'distutils/ccompiler.py' adding some prints and some
breakpoints to see what it ends up being. Also notice that 'python
setup.py build takes a --compiler parameter: I don't know if it can be
used (but I think it only accepts a subset of what you can override
using $CC)

I'm afraid I'm a bit shotgunning a solution: I'm not extremely
experienced with these tools either...
