gcc-3.2 provides a /usr/bin/gcc-3.2, etc. There's also a gcc package
that depends on the default version of gcc for your distribution (2.95
for stable, 3.2 for unstable) and provides /usr/bin/gcc as a symlink
to that. If you just have gcc-3.2, or if you want to use it in
preference to the default gcc, you can (frequently) set CC=gcc-3.2 in
your environment and well-behaved Makefiles will use it.

That sounds like a fairly...young system. You might check that you
have other essentials (particularly libc6-dev) installed.
