I'm not entirely sure how the Ubuntu SDK does it. I think looking at the
Ubuntu SDK code will help you here.
Specifically have a look at the scripts in the following folder:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-sdk-team/qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu/trunk/files/head:/share/qtcreator/ubuntu/scripts/

qtc_chroot_cmake
qtc_chroot_gcc
qtc_chroot_make

I'd be interested in what you find out.

However, hard-coding the compiler in your CMake files should work as well,
even though it's probably not to be recommended.

Cheers,
Niklas
