Hi,

I'm not sure what the present situation of gcc is with NetBSD. If
I recall correctly, gcc 2.95.3 will not build cleanly with NetBSD
at the moment.

There are patches to make 2.95.2 build in NetBSD's packages collection. 
A pre-built binary is available at 

ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/1.5/ARCH/lang/gcc-2.95.2.tgz

where ARCH is the architecture you are trying to install for.
There is certainly a pre-built binary there for i386.

Or alternatively, use pkgsrc 
(see http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/software/packages.html for
more details).

best wishes,
