[ptxdist] problem using custom host compiler

I am attempting to specify a host compiler via the file
~/.ptxdist/ptxdistrc-2015.02

PTXCONF_SETUP_HOST_CPP="cpp-4.8"
PTXCONF_SETUP_HOST_CC="gcc-4.8"
PTXCONF_SETUP_HOST_CXX="g++-4.8"
PTXCONF_SETUP_HOST_MAKE="make"

I think this is ptxdist setup developer options.

I expected ptxdist to use these compilers to build host-* packages, but
instead it is using gcc and g++.

I'm including a patch which behaves more the way I expect below. Would you
guys care to comment on how I should have done this? I would like to build
my firmware on different ubuntu versions which come with different
compilers.

Thanks,
Sandy Patterson
