atm emerge --info shows something like CC/CXX. Since it is possible to use alternative toolchain components, like clang/llvm, I guess would be great add those variables (like AR/LD and so on). It will help in situations like this: https://bugs.gentoo.org/722090#c4
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/profiles/info_vars Probably not controversial to add AR and LD here. If unsure, you may ask on gentoo-dev mailing list.
I suppose you'd have to make a list first.
I suggest adding at least: AR AS CPP FC LD NM RANLIB And maybe also: OBJCOPY OBJDUMP READELF STRIP
(In reply to Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis from comment #3) > I suggest adding at least: Since it does not hurt add all variables, I'd suggest to keep what toolchain-funcs.eclass offers. This is my full list: ADDR2LINE AR AS CC CPP CXXFILT CXX DWP FC GCOV LD NM OBJCOPY OBJDUMP RANLIB READELF SIZE STRINGS STRIP See also: https://bugs.gentoo.org/728456
