Perhaps you had set it as part of what the answer described here when experimenting
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23338713/homebrew-how-to-permanently-override-homebrew-cc-homebrew-cxx-env-settings
I assume you just need to reset the HOMEBREW_CC HOMEBREW_CX to nothing or what it was before.

Subject: Re: [postgis-users] compiling from source code
It turned out the problem wasl related to compiling conftest.c:
configure:6858: gcc conftest.c
conftest.c:14:8: error: unknown type name 'Syntax'
Syntax error
^
conftest.c:14:8: error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' at end of input
configure:6858: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h */
| #define PACKAGE_NAME ""
| #define PACKAGE_TARNAME ""
| #define PACKAGE_VERSION ""
| #define PACKAGE_STRING ""
| #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT ""
| #define PACKAGE_URL ""
| /* end confdefs.h. */
| #ifdef __STDC__
| # include <limits.h>
| #else
| # include <assert.h>
| #endif
| Syntax error
configure:6858: gcc conftest.c
conftest.c:14:8: error: unknown type name 'Syntax'
Syntax error
^
conftest.c:14:8: error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' at end of input
configure:6858: $? = 1
It is related to the problem posted here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15041937/configure-error-c-preprocessor-fails-sanity-check'
Passing -E option as follows fixes the problem ( i am not sure why):
./configure --prefix=/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/Cellar/postgis/2.3.3
CC=/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/gcc
CXX=/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/g++
CPP='/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/g++ -E
However the compile fails here (this is for postgis 2.3.3):
make[1]: Entering directory
'/home/sandeep/.cache/Homebrew/postgis-2.3.3/postgis'
gcc-4.8 -I../liblwgeom -fpic -I../libpgcommon -I/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/Cellar/geos/3.6.1/include

-c -o postgis_module.o postgis_module.c
make[1]: gcc-4.8: Command not found
<builtin>: recipe for target 'postgis_module.o' failed
make[1]: *** [postgis_module.o] Error 127
I am not sure why the make is picking up gcc-4.8.

For example in PostGIS 2.4, I think we now have a dependency on pkg-config which older versions of PostGIS do not. We'll sort this out before PostGIS release, but I think downside at moment, is the it fails if pkg-config is not installed. I forget the exact error you get.
