There is no such beast like gas (or as) in the pgcc distribution. Try
to look at the bintools package at
http://www.gnu.ai.mit.edu/software/binutils/binutils.html.
or at your Red Hat installation.

Unlike other compilers mostly in these windows worlds gcc (and pgcc)
uses the native assembler of the system.
