Could you please tell me how to solve this problem? I don't see any suggestion in the mail you quoted that says to uninstall gcc3.4 I suggest you don't uninstall gcc3.4 and instead configure gcc3.2 so it installs to a different path. That way you will have two versions installed in separate locations. > Where can I get an installation of cc that will work with gcc3.2?

It means following the usual installation instructions given on the gcc website, which say to run configure first. Once you've configured you can run 'make bootstrap'
