Some users certainly are impacted by the license change -- there are in 
fact quite a few companies that disallow their users using any GPLv3 
software!

I think you're right that GPLv3 has no substantial impact on what you 
can or cannot do with GCC, and therefore that most users -- once they 
and their legal departments understand GPLv3 -- can go on using GCC in 
exactly the ways they did when it was GPLv2.  But, that doesn't mean 
that it's not a major surprise to have an update release have a new and 
different license, with which you might not be familiar.
