No, we had gcc :-P but for a compilers class the goal is to write your own. Lots of people used gdb for debugging their assembly programs and probably at least half the people I know used Eclipse for development.

Did you have to write your compiler in C? (I wonder, because OCaml or Haskell seem like much better choices. Or even Java, just for the GC.)

  We wrote it in Java. We had some tools for the parsing (something like yacc for Java), we built a parser but it was in another class.
