It comes from the following in Services.pm:

sub gcc_selected {
        # this should work anywhere we support, really
        if (-l '/usr/bin/gcc') {
                my $link = readlink('/usr/bin/gcc');
                if ($link =~ /gcc-(\d+\.\d+)/) {
                        return $1;
                } else {
                        print STDERR "WARNING: /usr/bin/gcc is not a symlink!";
                }
        }
        return 0;
}

There are two problems here:

1)  [minor] The "print STDERR ..." item seems to be the wrong scope. 
The inner else block should only be reached if /usr/bin/gcc _is_ a 
symlink but to something that doesn't match the pattern.  This function 
got modified a lot after we stopped supporting 10.4--probably my fault here.

2)  Xcode 5 introduces a change in behavior in that /usr/bin/gcc is no 
longer a symlink.

I don't know how necessary this test actually is--it's a leftover from 
the period when folks needed to use "gcc_select" to switch the default 
compiler.
