Hello Chris,
I have written a book for this purpose: it is titled "An
Introduction to GCC" and covers the main options for gcc and
g++, optimization, debugging, how to link with shared
libraries, etc... basically all the main 'gotchas' I have
seen people encounter over the years as the maintainer of
GSL (the GNU Scientific Library).
You can find more information at
http://www.network-theory.co.uk/gcc/intro/
The discounted price is about $14 from Amazon. The money
raised from the sale of the book supports the development of
more free software and documentation.
I'd also recommend getting a copy of the full GCC Reference
Manual from GNU Press for further reading.
