If one package (namely: gcc-3.3) recommends another package (namely:
libc6-dev), you probably should install second together with the first
unless you have seriuos reasons not to do so :).

If you are installing manually with apt-get, it's your responsibility to
check recommends (and probably also suggests).
If you don't want to, use some apt- frontend that does it for you.

gcc does not depend on libc6-dev because there could be some use of gcc
without libc - such as kernel buyilds.
