If COMPILER_TYPE isn't set then every submake will need to figure out
which compiler is in use.  That's not too expensive for a build without
modules, but is potentially quite expensive with, hence the passing of
COMPILER_TYPE.  I'm not convinced the tradeoff is worth it for a little
edge-case user convenience.
