sometimes asking them about enabling gcc helps. You could try to ls to see if there is a special group which is allowed to compile.

List the contents of directories to see what exactly?

One would be looking elsewhere (if they had the permissions) to determine which group was allowed to do what (or to which group one belonged).
Add [SOLVED] to the thread title if your issue has been.
