[CMake] CMake compiler check failure

I got the following errors when CMake tests my compilers.  The problem is
that it seems CMake is checking /usr/bin/gcc, instead of the
/usr/bin/armv7a-cros-linux-gnueabi-gcc it should have checked.

I manually tried /usr/bin/armv7a-cros-linux-gnueabi-gcc, and it compiles
fine, and manually tried /usr/bin/gcc, it failed with the same errors as
below.

So why CMake identified the correct compiler
(armv7a-cros-linux-gnueabi-gcc), but when it checked the compiler (gcc), it
used the wrong one?

Thanks in advance for any help.
