Maybe try and run gcc --version, and if it fails, don't fail the test.

[Florian Schneider, 2015/09/24 09:36:36]

Done.

The ARM bots download a cross-compiled build instead of building itself, so they
might not have gcc installed.

[Florian Schneider, 2015/09/24 09:36:36]

Bill said they have gcc. But I'll add the check like suggested.

If enabled for the simulators, should explicitly pass -m32 or -m64.

[Florian Schneider, 2015/09/24 09:36:36]

Done. I didn't find a generic way to check for 32- vs 64-bit. So I end up using
the 'file' tool - but the test is Linux-only anyway because of gcc.
