First off this email list is really for automated messages from gcc's
bugzilla rather than from users reporting issues.

Oh * here is being handled by the shell you are using and being
expanded as all the files in the current working directory. This has
nothing to do with GCC really.
You can use quotes around the * to force the shell not expanding it
such as this:
./mycalc 20 '*' 30

or you use \ to force the shell not to expand what comes after the * like this:
./mycalc 20 \* 30
