You could set the variables like CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER, CMAKE_COMPILER_IS_GNUCXX, CMAKE_C_COMPILER, CMAKE_AR, CMAKE_RANLIB etc. manually. You also might have to adjust CMAKE_CXX_LINK_EXECUTABLE,  CMAKE_C_LINK_EXECUTABLE and friends. 
You can have a look at share/CMake/Modules/UseEcos.cmake for this. But this is for cross compiling eCos applications, not Linux applications.

Maybe others have better suggestions ?

Bye
Alex
