No. gcc produces those at installation time for a purpose, namely, to
fix known errors in the system header files. This means you cannot
lightly move a gcc installation from one operating system to another -
even if they are relatively similar, such as Solaris 2.5 and Solaris
7. In theory, re-running 'fixincludes' might help, but that is only an
option for experts.

I don't know. From your message it was not clear what *exactly* the
error message was you where getting, or what commands had been
producing it.
I recommend that you install a binary version of gcc 2.95.2 on your
system instead; follow the binaries link at the gcc.gnu.org.
