Bug#979732: ticker FTCBFS: uses the build architecture compiler

[Helmut Grohne <helmut@subdivi.de>]

Source: ticker
Version: 1.12
Tags: patch
User: debian-cross@lists.debian.org
Usertags: ftcbfs

ticker fails to cross build from source, because the upstream Makefile
hard codes the build architecture compiler gcc. The configure script
correctly detects the cross compiler. Please consider applying the
attached patch to make the Makefile use the detected compiler.
