[patch] explicitly use base cc (clang) - v0

During pre-configure, explicitly specify base CC=cc - cc is clang now in all
supported major versions of FreeBSD (even powerpc these days I think, but I
have not confirmed that).

This works around whatever bootstrap issue is going on with gcc (possibly
FreeBSD specific, but not known at this time).

With this patch, poudriere now builds lang/ghc if lang/gcc is installed (tested
on 12-amd64/stable).
