It's not your compiler, it's you. Also, that file you linked doesn't use fgets.
Instead of using gets, you should use fgets.
But really you should use std::string functions.

Paste an example where fgets is behaving buggily and I can take a look.

That's extremely dumb. Compiler errors are extremely rare, and you're not going to set one off just by using gets.
Come on. Please don't insult me. Look, I fixed the file up at the link I had given you - sorry I was careless about leaving gets out.
http://www.uweb.ucsb.edu/~frenchenee...Calculator.cpp
That does use gets, and it doesn't work properly. I shouldn't have said "crash" - that was misleading. The string is not recognized by my parser for some reason, and it fails. Commenting out fgets, and using my code makes it work. I don't believe there is any logical error. This is why I assumed something was wrong with the compiler.
Why? I would be very surprised if 'gets' didn't use 'fgets' under the covers.

Just to clarify, no offense, but I'm not actually looking for critique of my programming style. Much of this code was slapped together - I am not attempting to push it as the best example of C++ code.
