On my system,

$ make -p | grep LINK
...
LINK.o = $(CC) $(LDFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH)
LINK.p = $(PC) $(PFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH)
LINK.cc = $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH)
LINK.r = $(FC) $(FFLAGS) $(RFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH)
LINK.C = $(LINK.cc)
LINK.S = $(CC) $(ASFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) $(TARGET_MACH)
LINK.c = $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH)
LINK.s = $(CC) $(ASFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) $(TARGET_MACH)
LINK.cpp = $(LINK.cc)
LINK.F = $(FC) $(FFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH)
LINK.f = $(FC) $(FFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH)
...

I think you can choose the one valid for your language, if you are compiling a 
C program you sholud choose $(LINK.c).
