build: only inspect the first word of toolchain tools

[kevans]

Summary

CC/CXX/CPP/LD may all have arguments supplied in various circumstances,
which break the logic here. We only need to determine which of these
tools we're expecting to invoke from PATH, which just requires
examination of the first word. Limit our scope to exactly that.

Oh that's a neat new trick I'll have to abuse...
