You don't say what CCPREFIX is?
declare -x HOSTCC=`which gcc`;\
You probably want CC_FOR_BUILD, or the old name HOST_CC. Nothing I'm aware of examines the variable HOSTCC. And for it to have effect, you should set it when invoking configure, not when invoking make. But it gcc is in your PATH (which it has to be for which to find it), you shouldn't need to set any environment variables to point it out.

For trouble-shooting configure problems liek this, you have to look in config.log. There you should find the commands configure tries to run, and error messages when they fail.
