From http://gcc.gnu.org/:

#The GNU Compiler Collection includes front ends for C, C++, 
Objective-C, Fortran, Java, Ada, and Go, as well as
#libraries for these languages (libstdc++, libgcj,...). GCC was 
originally written as the compiler for the GNU operating system.
#The GNU system was developed to be 100% free software, free in the 
sense that it respects the user's freedom.

Here it is clearly stated that this is a C, C++, etc. compiler not 
something else. And when you press the C link it
shows to what degree the compiler supports the standard.  So what don't 
you understand?

No it is a tool that is supposed to work compilers work.

Too bad for GNU and gcc. And I had the impression that this is all 
about standards
that everyone should follow...
