If the GNU project inclusive of GCC's supported hosts "and targets", yes.
(As after all, although possibly not as glamorous, GNU's tool suite,
inclusive of GDB, been relied upon, and has historically been the basis of
a non-insignificant component of the funding which had enabled the project
to progress through the years; and shouldn't likely be disregarded, as most
of the the world's code development and processor use is targeted for
embedded systems, not PC's, and certainly not servers.)
