scpainter.h #includes qwmatrix.h which in turn #includes qwindowdefs.h, 
which has the definition

typedef struct _XGC *GC;

but *only* when you are using qt-x11, because the definition is dependent on

#if defined(Q_WS_X11)

This makes sense, because GC is the X11 "Graphics Context" structure.

If you want to replace this by something Apple-native, you might have as 
a next item on your list the line 54 of scpainter.cpp

#include <X11/Xlib.h>

How do you intend to replace this?

I don't want to discourage you, but it seems to me that you are up 
against some quite formidable windmills here.
