When running in UTF-8 locale (which is the default on FCx),
gcc prints UTF-8 encoded quotes.  If your terminal can't
show them, you shouldn't be using UTF-8 locales.
You can try LC_ALL=C gcc ... to see ASCII quotes, but really
you should either make sure you are running UTF-8 capable terminal,
or don't use UTF-8 locale.
