Now, why didn't you mention that in your original post? Help stamp
out guesswork!

You would need to install a Linux package of gcc-3.2 --- if you're
using the emulators/linux_base port, all of the standard linux stuff
you have installed is based on RedHat 7.1, so grabbing a .rpm from one
of the RedHat sites would probably be your best course of action.
Make sure you add '--root /compat/linux --dbpath /var/lib/rpm --nodeps
--replacepkgs --ignoreos --ignorearch' to the rpm command line. Make
sure to get the '--root' path right, or you may trash the system gcc,
which could be a very tricky thing to recover from.
Of course, you're going off into uncharted territory here: no
guarrantee that this will work correctly without severe hackery. Good
luck.
Cheers,
Matthew
PS. There's an alternative of using linux_base-debian, which provides
much the same sort of facility as linux_base, but based on the Debian
"woody" distribution and using .deb rather than .rpm files. If it
doesn't work with .rpm's you could try .deb's, but I do rather doubt
that will actually get you anywhere.
