Yes gcc does use the bison parser generator, look at
http://gcc.gnu.org and simply download the complete gcc source, you'll find
in example the gcc bison file for C language in the file gcc/gcc/c-parse.y
However gcc does not use the flex scanner generator They use their own
tokenizer/preprocessor.
So bison yes, flex no.
