Hi,

It might be a typo in the install script.  The paths you show above are
missing the initial / at the beginning. The paths should begin as /usr
not just usr.

Also, these two files are just symlinks into files that reside in your gcc
installation directory.  You might want to check you flipped your
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/ subdirectories correctly between 2.95 and 3.2.
