Well, gcc supports the AVR family http://www.avrfreaks.net/AVRGCC/ under
Linux http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/avr-libc/. There are also at
least a couple of other GPL assemblers that run under Linux:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/avra and http://www.tavrasm.org/

For actually programming the devices, PonyProg is free (as in beer) and
has a Linux port. http://www.lancos.com/ppwin95.html

Just curious, but what else are you looking for?

AFAIK, there is not a gcc port for PICs, although there is an assembler.
