It certainly does.  Back in the days before Alex's gcc port I got gcc
1.14 running on the Unix PC with full 68020/881 support.  I used it as
the host for cross development to a 68020 system.  The stock Unix PC
assembler knows all the 68020 and 68881 opcodes and addressing modes.
Adb knows how to disassemble them too:

kenobi: ford: /u/ford 34> cat t.c
struct foo
{
    int x:2;
    int y:4;
    int :6;
    int z:8;
};
main()
{
    struct foo foo;
    printf("%d %d %d", foo.x, foo.y, foo.z);
    return 0;
}
kenobi: ford: /u/ford 35> gcc -m68020 t.c
ld warning:  resultant object marking: "CPU=68020,FPU=SOFTWARE",
   incompatible with CENVIRON: "CPU=,FPU="
