Does the extension --inc-- have some special meaning for the gcc?

Whet I tried to compile the next foo.cc 

gcc -c foo.cc 

------------------------------------- foo.cc ---------
double a  ;
void foo (void) {
#include "slater.inc"              << ------- here
}
------------------------------------ slater.inc  -----
a = 1 ;
------------------------------------------------------

I got

foo.cc:3 Bad format encounter while reading precompiled file 


If I changed slater.inc to slater.in everything is o'k.
BTW What does this error mean? May be  gcc supports precompiled headers ?
Or it is only going to do it?
I found the string " ...-noprecomp"  in cpp.exe 
but no mention about such thing in documnetation.
