No wait, that's "env CONFIGURE_ENV='CC=/usr/pkg/pthreads/bin/pgcc' make"
for all shells. Also "CONFIGURE_ENV='CC=/usr/pkg/pthreads/bin/pgcc' make"
works for Bourne shells, or
"setenv CONFIGURE_ENV 'CC=/usr/pkg/pthreads/bin/pgcc'; make" for C-shells.
The point is to set CONFIGURE_ENV in the environment instead of after the
"make", so as not to interfere with the package make system.
