I'd recommend not building software anywhere but under your home
directory, to avoid cluttering up the system.

You would miss out a few vitals if you only copy those files. gcc
needs a whole bunch of stuff to compile stuff successfully.
One way to do this would be to build with a prefix like
/usr/local/packages/gcc-2.95 so that 'make install' will put
everything under there. Then you can easily tar up this directory and
unpack it on each machine. Prepending
/usr/local/packages/gcc-2.95/bin to the path should then complete the
override.
