There's no 2.95.5 compiler.  The latest release is 2.95.2.

If you want a compiler only for the language C, you may use the
tarball that has `core' in its name.  If you want all languages
supported by the GNU Compiler Collection as of release 2.95.2 (C, C++,
Java, Objective C, Fortran 77 and Chill) go for gcc-2.95.2.tar.gz (or
.tar.bz2, if you have bzip2 to decompress it).  Alternatively, you may
download the core (that includes the C compiler) plus any other
language front-ends you may want.

Note that you'll need a working compiler to build it, since we
distribute GCC in source form only.  If you don't have a compiler, you
may need to download a pre-compiled version, then optionally use it to
build GCC yourself.  There's a web-page at http://gcc.gnu.org that
lists some known provides of GCC binaries.
