Here's how you can find all the predefined macros:
  
  $ echo "" > dummy.c
  $ gcc -E -dM dummy.c

You'll see the following in the output:
  
  __GNUC__ -- all gnu Compiler versions (egcs = 2)
  __GNUC_MINOR__ -- all gnu Compiler versions (egcs = 91)
  __CYGWIN__ -- CYGWIN
  __CYGWIN32__ -- old Cygwin (pre b20, now deprecated)

__GNUC_MINOR__ >= 90 implies EGCS as opposed to FSF GCC-2.x.x. When EGCS
becomes GCC 3, then __GNUC__ will become 3 and __GNUC_MINOR__ will reset.

Regards,
Mumit
