complibs/libelf: use host compiler

It appears, that the configure scripts of libelf versions 0.8.13 and
0.8.12 do not honour the --host option. The compiler must be given as an
environment variable or the process will use the command "gcc" as the
compiler.

It seems that this is already done in the function do_libelf_target in
scripts/build/companion_libs/libelf.sh, but not in function do_libelf.

    22 If you want to enhance crosstool-NG, there's a to-do list in the TODO file.

    23 

    24 Patches should come with the appropriate SoB line. A SoB line is typically

    25 something like:

    26    Signed-off-by: John DOE <john.doe@somewhere.net>

    27 

    28 The SoB line is clearly described in Documentation/SubmittingPatches , section

    29 12, of your favourite Linux kernel source tree.

    32 For larger or more frequent contributions, mercurial should be used.

    33 There is a nice, complete and step-by-step tutorial in section 'C'.
