	In fact cc1 is one of the program called by gcc. Actually, gcc
	call the following programs :

	* cpp : c preprocessor
	* cc1 : true compilator
	* as  : assembler
	* ld  : linker

	So cc1 is part of the gcc package :
	
$ dlocate cc1
gcc: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.2/cc1
g++: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.2/cc1plus

	There should be a problem with your installation of gcc like
	the gcc output is indicating.
