Maybe:
- Rename CC, AS, ... to I386_CC, I386_AS, ...

- Add support to check for other architectures (there's already a
comment "This should be a loop over all supported architectures",
storing that in ARM_CC, ARM_AS, ...

- Change Makefile to set:
CC:=$($(CONFIG_SOME_CONFIG_VARIABLE_WITH_ARCHITECTURE))_CC ...
depending on the chosen target hardware
