Don't do this.  Instead, install the gcc3 RPMs.  They live nicely
alongside the regualr gcc-2.96-98 rpms.

[mjs@paladin mjs]$ rpm -qa | grep gcc
gcc-c++-2.96-98
gcc3-3.0.4-1
gcc-2.96-98
libgcc-3.0.4-1
gcc3-c++-3.0.4-1
gcc-g77-2.96-98
gcc-objc-2.96-98

Then set your complier to be gcc3 instead of gcc.  This is usually done in
a makefile by defining the CC macro.  (I don't know how mplayer builds,
but if that's not already there, you will need to replace occurrences of
gcc with gcc3.)
