I imagine gcc is the *only* such beast.

No, we mean gcc. This very well known, in fact the first link for
"compiler" on google.

I don't mean to be disrespectful, but if you cannot locate somwething
like gcc, then it seems unlikely you are going to be able to get linux
running on an embedded platform!

Unless, perhaps, someone has already prepared a linux distribution for
your particular hardware. For example I gather there are distributions
for some linksys routers which are ARM-based.

In sundar's situation, he was apparently responding to Kmann's and 
Devereux'x earlier comment about tcc:

Sundar failed to actually quote that message, though, so Devereux may 
have forgotten about it.

Actually the only tcc I was aware of is from Borland many years ago. 
That is apparently why he asked about Turbo C.  A quick trip to Google 
concerning 'tcc compiler ARM' yields the better candidate.
