I am afraid that wont work XCODE no longer comes with any gcc included besides 
llvm-gcc (I am not near my mac to try this but I am pretty sure it will fail). 
Apple has abandoned gcc completely and it wont be included again in XCODE as 
far as I have ready from the several websites. 

Last gcc was included was XCODE 4.1. If you are like me a user with a clean 
install of Lion and XCODE 4.2 you are out of lack. By the way you are not the 
only one open source project to have this issue , seems all open source project 
are faced with the same issue.

I am a noob with this whole thing but I think that on macos at least if you 
still want to depend on XCODE llvm is an one way street.

I extended the HOWTOBUILD in the blessed repository.

For me 

        cd build
        export CC='/usr/bin/gcc-4.2'    # as of 10.7 llvm is the incompatible 
default compiler
        export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.5
        cmake .
        make

worked. And yeah, I wouldn't symlink it either :)

too bad that we can't use clang/llvm yet for the compilation. The error 
handling is so much better than in gcc :P

best
