Using different version of gcc in my project using automake

I am using automake for my project. I have gcc 4.2 installed and there is a soft link to gcc-4.2 as gcc. I also installed gcc 4.8 at some other location and now I want my project to use gcc 4.8 from this location. I do not want to change the existing soft link to gcc. So is there any way to do that in configure.ac file.

Normally this is not something you do in configure. configure is about portability, and your problem is different: customizing a build to your particular machine.

Instead the problem is typically solved when running configure:

./configure CC=/path/to/other/gcc
