For the record, gcc and cc are the same on Mac OS X (unless you have  
an unusual installation of developer tools):

$ ls -l /usr/bin/cc /usr/bin/gcc
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel  7 May 10 06:57 /usr/bin/cc -> gcc-4.0
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel  7 May 10 06:57 /usr/bin/gcc -> gcc-4.0

(i.e., the two names are symbolic links to the same specific version  
of GCC).
If you see a difference in the two, that would be somewhat surprising  
(although I suppose the compiler might behave differently, depending  
on how it was called).
