Where is Gnu compiler itself?

- Subject: Where is Gnu compiler itself?
Dear Cygwin,
I have downloaded the complete Cygwin environment from several of your mirror sites onto my Windows XP system, but I never seem to get the Gnu C compiler itself.? This manifests itself in two ways: 1) although /bin ends up full of executables, gcc.exe is never among them; and 2) no matter what directory I put my "test .c" file in and make my current directory, the command to compile:
> gcc test.c -o test.exe
always produces this error message:
bash: gcc: command not found
Can you help me?? I must be doing something stupid.
Regards,
