Normally you should have gcc. This package installs 'gcc' binary which
is actually just frontend to real compilators. gcc-2.95 and gcc-3.0
should install compilators iteself. You can have both.

I highly recomend you do not use gcc-3.0 for kernel building. Probably
if you do not any major building you should not use gcc-3.0 at all
since it is beta now - there was no offical release of stable version
of gcc-3.0.
