Then just install it from your distribution CDs or download it from
http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/9/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/ or
one of the Redhat mirror sites.

That's wrong. GCC 2.96 is installed by the compat-gcc package -- for
compatibility reasons for older programs.

The default compiler on Redhat 9 is GCC 3.2.2.

However, you may use the already installed gcc296 to bootstrap GCC
3.3, just set the environment variable CC to this compiler as you were
already told. If you're using Bash run

export CC=/usr/bin/gcc296
