gcc is a compiler.  The MCF5275 uses a ColdFire microprocessor.  gcc
supports the ColdFire, so as far as compilers go, gcc will suffice.

However, in order to build images you will also need a C library and a
board support package.  You can probably use newlib for the C library.
I don't know about the board support package.
