running "gcc_select" by itself is supposed to give you something like: $ gcc_select Current default compiler: gcc version 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5367) though the instructions probably should mention a value. Since you're missing the exectuable, you need to try to reinstall the DeveloperTools.pkg of Xcode. -- Alexander K.
