You misunderstood what he was saying. The GCC
compiler IS included on
the installation disks as part of the XCode program. You can also
download this program off of the internet(The download is over a gig
by the way last I looked). The complaint is that Apple only bundles
gcc with the XCode program and a lot of useless stuff that aren't
necessarily used by people like us. But they are used by most Mac
developers, and Apple I am sure wants to encourage their use and
'their' way of doing things.
Ah, I see, thanks. Yes, an encouragement. I get the point. An open
ecosystem doesn't need to offer the same encouragement.
