It's easy: If you compile Lazarus from within Lazarus, it uses the same 
compiler as it uses for all other projects. And you can set this 
compiler in the configuration. There's nothing strange here.

If you build from the command-line, the compiler in your path is used, 
unless you provide one in the command-line.
