While this may be true, if you want to use multiple compiler versions at the
same time under Debian, you can, by referring to gcc-2.95 or gcc-3.3 where you
would otherwise refer to gcc. Many Makefiles read the compiler to use out of
the CC and CXX environment variables, so this is not nearly as painful as you
seem to think it is.
I maintain a multi-user environment where we use both gcc-2.95 and gcc-3.4, and
it works fine.
