"gcc -c -o ./objs/foo.o foo.c"
The above command will put foo.o to the directory ./objs. But if ./objs 
doesn't exist, gcc will prompt error. How to make gcc to create the 
output directory automatically ?

There is no way to make gcc create the directory.

Sorry.

Of course it will work to do

mkdir -p ./objs; gcc -c -o ./objs/foo.o foo.c
