I can't tell you were to get Linux gcl binaries from, but I think I can tell you what
might have get wrong with your gcl compilation.
As you can see from your gcc compiler output, there is lot of redefined stuff, which means
that all of those have been defined twice and at some compilation stage wrong, which finally
lead up to fail the compilation of the file "gbc.c".
At a first quick look, the problem seems to be that two signal header files are included,
"/usr/include/signal.h and /usr/include/asm/signal.h" which overwrite each others definitions
and one of these isn't the correct one to use.
You should take a deeper look at both "signal.h" header files and make sure to include only
one of these (hopefully the right one, which seems to be /usr/include/asm/signal.h, but since
I don't have/use Linux, I can't tell you for shure if my assumtion is right).

Maybe this isn't a help to you, if you are not familiar with C programming. In this case
some kind Linux user might tell you were to get gcl binaries.
