It's called `gcc', by the good folks at the Free Software Foundation.  You
can get it, and tons of other stuff, by ftp from a lot of places
(ftp.uu.net:/systems/gnu and prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu to name a couple, do
a `dir gcc*', also take a look in ./GNUinfo).  There are also a few `gnu'
newsgroups (e.g. gnu.announce, gnu.gcc.announce) that can give you more
information.
