gcc is a normal compiler, it compiles just all all other normal
compilers before it.  Certainly it is just like all other UNIX
compilers.

Did you read the book we wrote on the subject?  If not, you might want to, see 

http://gcc.gnu.org/

->  Docs:Manual:GCC Manual

http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc.html

and then check read the whole thing, for example

http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc_17.html#SEC181

tells you a little bit about the compiler.

There is a good resource on the Internet called www.google.com, if you asked it:

GNU C compiler manual

it would have taken you to the gcc manual that describes these details.
