No, it's currently not exported from make, so not available in the 
environment.  What I meant is something like this: extend the script to 
take an optional compiler-with-arguments argument, so that it can be 
called like:

% ./the-test-script.sh -c "../tcc -B.. -I.. -whatever-else"

and then use it with that argument in the makefile like so:

---- snip ----
mytarget: the-test-script.sh
        ./the-test-script.sh -c "$(TCC)"
---- snap ----

The Makevariable $(TCC) should contain everything that's needed.
Still, even the above might be overdesigning it a bit :)
(I see you also access the tcc-tok file directly, so that might further 
complicate things from the tests/ Makefile, so don't bother if that gets 
you into the rabbit hole too far)


Ciao,
