Overriding the compiler should do it.
I do this as follows:
   CC=/path/to/my/compler ./configure

(although recent autoconf doc deprecates that syntax
in favor of
   ./configure CC=/path/to/my/compler
I don't think the new syntax works with old configures)

If that's not working, something's wrong...
