Why doesn't cc accept GNU C extensions?

According to the manual, the cc (C/Objective C) compiler under MacOS X should accept GNU extensions to C, such as labels as values. But syntax such as &&label and goto *jumptable[i] is rejected.

However, that syntax is accepted by the c++ compiler, which claims to be derived from gcc 2.95.2 exactly like the cc compiler.

Is there some compiler option I need to specify (when invoking the compiler from the command line)?
