  * egcs-core-1.0.tar.gz        --  C & ObjC compilers only in gzip format.
  * egcs-core-1.0.tar.bz2       --  C & ObjC compilers only in bzip2 format.

  * egcs-g++-1.0.tar.gz         --  G++ compiler and C++ runtime libraries
                                    in gzip format.
  * egcs-g++-1.0.tar.bz2        --  G++ compiler and C++ runtime libraries
                                    in bzip2 format.

So, if you picked up egcs-1.0.tar.gz, you got everything.  You wouldn't need
any of the other pieces.

If you wanted just the core & C++ compiler you would pick up
egcs-core-1.0.tar.gz & egcs-g++-1.0.tar.gz

Unpack them in the same directory.
