That's indeed the name of the upstream project. However, the compiler
that's provided in the gcc-3.2 package is specifically for C. The
existing short description seems ideal: it would be misleading to
describe the package as a "compiler collection" when only a single
compiler is included.
Perhaps it would be reasonable to mention in the long description that
the C compiler is part of the GNU Compiler Collection, though.
