I mean that saying "on Linux ... you will have it installed anyway" is
wrong.

Sure, although in the dozen or two versions I've come across, it
always has been.

I'm not sure what you mean by a "version".  Every version (in the sense
of release number) of a source-only Linux distribution will have gcc
installed, but is that all you mean?  Source-only distributions are rare
and not widely used.
