Maybe not, but a number of packages use cc for compatibility (E.G. they
should work with other compilers than just gcc).

E.G. the default built in make rule for .c -> binary uses cc:

echo 'int main(void) { return 0; }' > test.c
make test
cc     test.c   -o test

So I think it makes sense to add the symlink for compatibility.
