'-c' is an option to cc/gcc, *not* to cpp/gcpp.  They are different
programs so you don't want to symlink one to the other.  Why do you think
you should?

'-c' means just compile to object code, don't link.  If you are running the
preprocessor then you aren't even going that far so it doesn't make sense.
You could try gcc -E if you have trouble with cpp.  The acceptable options
may be a touch different between the two.

Are you sure your Makefile is properly configured?

As Colin noted your Q2 is covered in the FAQ.  If that doesn't fix the
problem post again.
