Currently, when I try to run waforthc but without a gcc in the PATH, I get a weird error message.

$ waforthc file.fs
Hello, Forth
execvp() error
error compilingerror compiling

It takes a bit of debugging to find out that gcc was missing and it would be best if waforthc could inform the user about this.
