Alas, this is not correct.  As written above, some packages use
hard-coded CFLAGS which can't be overridden.  For example, in
`guile.mk' it is set as

  CFLAGS='-Wno-unused-but-set-variable'

I see no reason why the user can't provide her own CFLAGS value, so
the correct form would rather be

  CFLAGS="$(CFLAGS) -Wno-unused-but-set-variable"

I believe.  The same holds for almost all other *.mk files.c
