I don't think you need to modify GCC, it is the compiler that you can use
to generate required executables.  Making changes to it is a massive
undertaking.

Instead of trying to reinvent stuff that has already been done, you really
should read the Genode documentation and download and read the source code
referenced by Norman Feske's suggestions.

>From my reading of the Genode documents and source code, I would expect
that you would find a considerable amount of code that you could you
re-purpose for your specific requirements.

Cheers,
Tyga
