You do have to perform a free download of the Xcode development tools to get them, but once you do that gcc, make, and the other common development tools are readily available even if you don't use the Xcode tools to manage your source code.
I'm not sure I know what you're talking about. I already have gcc, make, etc. installed on my machine, and have added their directory to $PATH in my startup script. However, when I run gcc, it tells me certain libraries are missing. I can't link C libraries except through XCode. Will downloading the developer tools change this?
