I could also add the paths that I need to a variable of my own invention
and pass that on the command line, e.g.:

   $ mips-openwrt-linux-musl-gcc ... -L${MY_LIB_PATHS} ...

I just seems a bit weird that GCC honors CPATH and friends for header
file locations, but there doesn't seem to be any equivalent for library
paths.
