Max Bowsher made a very important point from a diagnostic point, he said: "Run the command "gcc -v" and post the output."
This may give a tipoff if something is wrong with your gcc install. Also run: which gcc and give the results. This will tell us where gcc is coming from, and whether there might be interference from somewhere. By the way, did you try the suggestion to reinstall gcc (which is in the devel category)???
