That reads poorly - I first parsed it as "if losing compiler, then
(distribute the 'compile' script and rewrite $CC)"; when you really
intend "always distribute 'compile' script, and (if losing compiler,
rewrite $CC)".  Try this wording:

Instead, just touch up AC_PROG_CC to rewrite $CC when a losing compiler
is detected, and to always distribute the 'compile' script.
