Your fixup might give a clue as to how it got the wrong permissions:
you've just broken your gcc-4.8 which ought to be executable by all
(as should everything in /usr/bin).

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root   root             7 Feb 25  2015 gcc -> gcc-4.9*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root   root        715448 Dec 20  2014 gcc-4.8*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root   root        806344 Feb 10 18:17 gcc-4.9*

Cheers,
David.
