Don't know of any, but if it turns out there isn't there's a workaround:
compile it from Windows, watching the clock in the screen corner; or, make
a short C program that does something like:

int main (int argc, char *argv[]) {
   [read system time]
   [shell gcc with the same arguments]
   [read system time, subtract earlier time]
   [convert it into readable text and print it]
}
