Thanks! Included in 'pu'.

I have two questions.

1. Is there any good reason to have two commits? It seems to me
that the commits should be combined to one using 'git rebase -i HEAD~2'.

2. Is it really necessary to change Makefiles that don't actually use
the CC_NAME variable (such as lib/orber/c_src/Makefile)?
It would be much easier for us to accept the patch if it only changed
the Makefiles that actually tests for gcc (for technical reasons; in
the background we still use Clearcase and some of the applications
are maintained on branches that are common to several major
releases of Erlang/OTP).
