For any Amiga running the normal Amiga OS (Exec/AmigaDOS), you can use the
port by Markus Wild which can be found on any AmiNet mirror site (try e.g.
ftp.uni-kl.de) in /pub/dev/gcc. It comes with a special shared library
containing all standard C functions and some UNIX emulation functions to
ease porting of UNIX software.

Markus' port is of version 2.3.3, but you can apply his patches and compile
2.4.5 yourself if you need to.  Someone did so and said he'll put his
binaries onto nic.funet.fi, so you should look there too.

For an Amiga running any kind of UNIX flavor (AmigaUNIX, BSD, Linux, ...)
you will have to get the sources and compile yourself (will take quite some
time, a friend of mine needed nearly 20 hours on his A3000 running
AmigaUNIX).  There are no binary distributions of GCC for Amiga UNIX.
