Remove check for gcc

Since plenty of formula don't require it, I don't want to insist on gcc being installed. A better check is if gcc is required then check for version 4.2, which is all we support.

However I can't easily do that. So I'm risking bug reports from people who didn't read the installation instructions and didn't install the right Xcode. But they deserver derision :P
