Do you have a "cc" compiler? If you do, it's really gcc, because that is
Apple's vendor-supplied compiler. It includes Apple's improvements that
have not yet been folded into the GNU version (or at last had not, as of
the Cheetah version).
If you have the installation CD's for Mac OS 10.1.5, there should be one
with the Developer Tools. Every version of Mac OS X, dating back to the
public beta, has had the Apple-supplied Developer Tools (later renamed
Xcode), which includes Apple's own version of gcc.
If you don't have a CD, look in /Applications/Installers for a Developer
Tools installer.
Normally the Development Tools are available as a free download from the
Apple Developer site, but when I looked, the oldest version I saw there
was for 10.2 or later. Perhaps the older versions have been removed, or
perhaps I was looking in the wrong place. It has to be the right
version, because the 10.1.5 Developer Tools won't work with earlier or
later versions of OS X.
