Name one?

If it wasn't for C++, there are plenty of other powerfull languages out
there.

Well, same goes for C++, year 2010 and we are not getting a standard gui
library (not saying it is necessary)

For the second part, C might owe its fame to Unix, i don't know it is true or not. But you have to admit it is a great language. Still there are many
C programmers out there and i am sure they got their reasons to use it,
quite valid reasons. I would use it over any language out there if there
wasn't C++.

Of course it did not require one.

On those days GUIs were rare, and if you want to develop for Unix, C was
the only option.

C got famous because of Unix. C on its own would never had survived as a
language.

I guess it is wording.
Hmm say...

Does Java come with a standard gui library? Yes.
Does C come with a standard gui library? No.

C didn't need a gui library to be successful, and didn't come with one.
On the other hand Java/C# have to have one, packed, and they do come
with
(at least)one.

If your language has a "system programming" in its feature lists, these
kind of libraries have very low priority, let alone specific IDE.

I'm not quite understanding your argument.
C and C++ do have *actual* IDE's for them, such as Visual Studio.
