What version of GCC?

To build anything (including GCC) from source, you need a functioning
compiler.  On OpenServer, the most common options are to use the SCO
Development System, the SCO UDK, or to install prebuilt GCC from the
Skunkware cd that came with your system.[1]   

Of course, if you install GCC 2.95.1 binaries from the Skunkware CD (or
from www.sco.com/skunkware/) be sure to follow the directions that come
with them about the linkers and libraries package.
