+In addition to those specific offerings, you can get a binary
+distribution CD-ROM from the <a
+href="http://www.fsf.org/order/order.html">Free Software
+Foundation</a>. It contains binaries for a number of platforms, and
+includes not only GCC, but other stuff as well. The current CD does
+not contain the latest version of GCC, but it should allow
+bootstrapping the compiler. An updated version of that disk is in the
+works.
