FWIW, I just tried building GCC 2.95.2 on my Linux system (Fedora Core 32, GCC
10.3.1. It almost built, ran into an argument mismatch error message in
something called "chill". So if you want something that old it looks like
you'll have to start by building a less ancient version, say 4.8 or so, and
then use that to build the dinosaur.
