This ain't exactly the same command Sam had me test earlier today. This
one breaks my /dev/null:

  echo "main() {}" | gcc -xc - -o /dev/null

But this one doesn't:

  echo 'main() {}' | gcc -xc -c - -o /dev/null

I.e., the additional -c seems to make a difference (at least in my
case.) Sam, maybe that's an easier and more efficient fix than
resorting to a temporary file?

Thanks,
