      Description

        During toolchain detection, if the found compiler (CC or CXX) is a symbolic link, we resolve it and point to the resolved binary. This was introduced to be able to debug systems with a broken setup, but it breaks use cases were a CC wrapper is used.

        A better solution is to just print the path of the resolved symlink and keep the original value intact.
