Do you need an existing compiler to install gcc?


I have a rs6000 with 4.3.1.0, downloaded gcc-2.95.2, unzipped and
expanded it.  When i go to configure it, it tells me :

# /us3/temp/gcc-2.95.2/configure
Configuring for a powerpc-ibm-aix4.3.1.0 host.
Created "Makefile" in /us3/temp/source using "mh-frag"
/us3/temp/gcc-2.95.2/configure[1462]: /us3/temp/gcc-2.95.2/gcc: 0403-
006 Execut.
*** The command '/us3/temp/gcc-2.95.2/gcc -o conftest -O2   conftest.c'
failed.
*** You must set the environment variable CC to a working compiler.

Whats going on?  Do I need an existing CC compiler prior to this?
