fbpanel completely ignores the CC and CFLAGS envvars, the attached patch fixes this. I imagine this problem doesn't affect very many people, and is understandably very low priority(I only noticed it when my XC failed due to incorrect CC). I'm tempted to suggest setting CHATTY=1 during make by default too, so it is obvious what is happening. That however is definitely a personal issue, I just hate "hidden" builds. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

(In reply to comment #0) > I just hate "hidden" builds. Agreed. I have set CHATTY=1 in addition to the changes in your patch. Thanks.
