You can both gcc-3.2 and gcc-2.95 installed at the same time without
problems. Which one you get when you run just 'gcc' is determined by
the 'gcc' package you have installed; for a long time it was gcc-2.95,
but it changed fairly recently in unstable to gcc-3.2. You can also
explicitly use gcc-3.2 or gcc-2.95 if you need one version or the
other.
