Re: Does gcc support Xeon proc?

AFAIK Xeon is a line of processors that goes back from Pentium II up
to Pentium 4, but I assume you're talking about Pentium 4 Xeon, so my
answer applies to Pentium 4, not to Xeon in particular.

In the sense that code generated by GCC will run on Pentium 4, yes, it
does.  In the sense of doing optimizations specifically for Pentium 4,
no, it doesn't, AFAIK.
