First, of course, you need gcc :-).
The most likely thing to cause gcc to be unable to create executables is
to miss binutils. Not having binutils will stop it in its tracks.
You will probably need glibc, glibc-devel, and a -devel for any other
library the package wants to use. Probably XFree86-devel.
