headers (don't know).
That's the problem: to actually compile C code, you need a lot more than
just GCC. You need:
- header files like `stdio.h`
- standard libraries like `libc`
- an assembler
- a linker
all these are shipped with XCode but not with GCC. I don't know if it's
even possible to use a complete GNU toolchain on OS X.
