RFR(S) 8021296 : [TESTBUG] Test8017498.sh fails to find "gcc" and fails to compile on some Linux releases

[Yumin Qi]

Looks good.
For first three tests, they are targeting for Linux, so I think move 
checking up in

   21 OS=`uname -s`
   22 case "$OS" in
   23   Linux)
   24     NULL=/dev/null
   25     PS=":"
   26     FS="/"
+        gcc_cmd=`which gcc`
   27     ;;
   28   * )
   29     echo "Test passed; only valid for Linux"
   30     exit 0;
   31     ;;
   32 esac
   33
+ exit here
   34 ${TESTJAVA}${FS}bin${FS}java ${TESTVMOPTS} -Xinternalversion > vm_version.out 2>&1


no need go forward without gcc.

Thanks
Yumin
