Capitalization is important.  "GCC" is the GNU Compiler Collection, which 
has numerous frontends, backends, and quite a bit of shared code in the 
middle.  "gcc" basename of the UNIX binary that is the C language frontend 
part of "GCC".

DNS is case insensitive, making "gcc.gnu.org" == "GCC.GNU.org".  
"GCC.GNU.org" is the home of "GCC".
