-----
address@hidden:~/src/tmp$ cat k.c
#include <stddef.h>
size_t n;
address@hidden cc -c k.c && echo OK
OK
address@hidden gcc -c k.c && echo OK
OK
-----

Note that coreutils-4.5.12 does build with cc:
-----
address@hidden:~/src/orig/coreutils-4.5.12$ CC=cc ./configure >/dev/null 2>&1 
&& make >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo OK
OK
-----

More details / extra testing upon request.
