If you copy the .NET 4 version of gacutil.exe (located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.0A\bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools) to another machine/server you might come across the issue, that executing gacutil.exe just seems to do nothing.
To fix this problem, you need to copy the files gacutil.exe.config (also from C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.0A\bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools) and gacutlrc.dll (from the sub-folder 1033) to the same location where you have copied the gacutil.exe to.
Executing gacutil.exe should now output something like:
