gcc (well, strictly speaking it's ld but called by gcc) normally gives 
executable output files exec permissions when compiling regardless of umask:

$ umask 0002; echo -ne '#include <stdio.h>\nint main(int argc, char 
**argv)\n{\n\tprintf("%s\\n", "Hello World!");\n}' > x.c; strace -f gcc 
x.c 2>&1 | grep chmod
[pid 11229] chmod("a.out", 0775)        = 0

Getting EACCESS on a freshly compiled binary often implies that the file 
system doesn't allow executable permissions - either it's mounted with 
noexec, SELinux is preventing the exec or the file system does not 
support executable permissions.

Are you using removable/network storage? What's does mount say?
