Issue #18080: When building a C extension module on OS X, if the compiler

ned-deily · ned-deily · commit 1ab29e78f9e6 · 2013-05-28T16:31:45.000-07:00
is overriden with the CC environment variable, use the new compiler as
the default for linking if LDSHARED is not also overriden.  This restores
Distutils behavior introduced in 2.7.3 and inadvertently dropped in 2.7.4.
