If you install one of the recommended libraries (the compat* library posted
on oss.oracle.com), /usr/bin/gcc will become a shell script wrapper for gcc.

I had to do this (and include a -m32 in /usr/bin/gcc) to get Grid Control
Rel 2 to install under RH4 x86-64.

We didn't do that on any of our boxes.  We installed the 64-bit libraries
and it went fine.  Also, if /usr/bin/gcc is a shell script, I would be
concerned. 
I've never seen that, and I can only assume you have the 32-bit version of
the OS or gcc installed.

<code>

[root@oracle1 ~]# more /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS
release 4 (Nahant)
[root@oracle1 ~]# file /usr/bin/gcc
/usr/bin/gcc: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), for
GNU/Linux 2.4.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped
