gcc-3.3.5-r1 (and previous versions) don't install a cc executable or symlink. This breaks the building of other packages (iptables, openmotif, etc.) that use cc for whatever reason. If this is intentional, then please disregard. Thanks. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install gcc 2.Try to use cc 3.

no info posted here regarding actual failures there should be no 'cc' in /usr/$CTARGET/gcc-bin/$PV/ 'cc' should only exist in /usr/bin/
I just needed to run gcc-config. Sorry to waste your time.
