Why does “guix package -i gcc” give me:
 guix package: error: gcc: unknown package

I realize about installing gcc-toolchain, but if I just want to install a single arbitrary package?

The 'gcc' package was recently "hidden" so that users don't accidentally
install it when they probably want 'gcc-toolchain'.

If you really want to install it, you can refer to it by the variable
name, like so:

  guix package -e '(@ (gnu packages gcc) gcc-9)'

HTH!
Marius
