chances are that manual pages are not installed on your system .
you can get them online .

GCC online documentation - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation (FSF)

Are the gcc pages in your MANPATH variable?

Code:
echo $MANPATH

You need to add them. If you got gcc from sunfreeware.com, then the man pages live in /usr/local/share/man ....
Else with base install they are in /usr/sfw/share/man/
