gcc compiler

ruby is well known for having issues compiling on different c compilers. Older versions of ruby would only build on the official gcc compiler (not apple's llvm); and lately ruby-build defaults many builds to clang.

Do any specific node versions have issues with certain c compilers?

#74 indicates that indeed, recent versions require gcc 4.9 (or at least not 4.6.3)

0.12.7 was the last one that I can build. I tested 4.0.0, 4.1.0, 4.2.0, 4.2.1 and those failed with the same error.

We'll need to add the require_gcc functions back in and add them to the definition files
