gpsd: fix cross-compilation
Prior to this commit, builds of `pkgsCross.*.gpsd` were failing.

`gpsd` expects `CCVERSION` to be set, and fails if it is not set.
Scons does not guarantee that `CCVERSION` will be set, nor does it
specify under what circumstances it will or will not be set: "This may
or may not be set, depending on the specific C compiler being used."

  https://scons.org/doc/production/HTML/scons-man.html#cv-CCVERSION

Apparently cross-compilation triggers one of those unspecified
circumstances.  There are several bug reports to scons relating to
this:

  https://github.com/SCons/scons/issues/1723
  https://github.com/SCons/scons/issues?q=is%3Aissue+ccversion+is%3Aclosed

`gpsd` does not use `CCVERSION` for any purpose other than printing a
log message at the start of the build:

  https://gitlab.com/gpsd/gpsd/-/commit/d0558636038e18d90eb886f668ff5004538f7839

This commit modifies the log message, replacing `env['CCVERSION']`
with `env['CC']`, since `CC` is always set when using nixpkgs'
standard builder.

With this commit, `pkgsCross.mips64el-linux-gnuabi64.gpsd` and
`pkgsCross.powernv.gpsd` build correctly on x86_64.  Prior to this
commit, they would fail with:
