Hi,
the /usr/share/doc/gcc-3.0-base/README.Debian.gz says:
How are the default compilers selected?
---------------------------------------
[...]
This may seem confusing, but what it allows you do to is install two
versions of the GCC compiler suite at the same time, making sure you are
always using the one preferred for that architecture. To use the other
compiler, simply set CC=gcc-3.0, or similar.
[...]
That seems to be in your file. If you have installed the gcc-3.2 why not simply
link /usr/bin/gcc to /usr/bin/gcc-3.2.
