Are you on Linux, some flavour of Windows perhaps, or something else? If you're on some flavour of Linux, gcc ought to already be installed. If it isn't you should look at your distribution to install the development tools. On SUSE Linux, that would be YaST. If you're on Windows, go to cygwin and install it along with the various development tools. That is about as close as you're going to get to a unix environment on Windows. If you are on Windows, and have cygwin installed, but without the development tools, you can modify the installation to get the development tools. NB: cygwin seems to always be very behind WRT gcc versions. In any event, on cygwin, gcc 4.2.1 builds fine. On my system, cygwin had version 3.4.4 of gcc, and I had no real trouble building gcc 4.2.1. Does that help?
