You should use 2.95.2 - 2.95 has some rather serious bugs.
RPMs for 2.95.2 can be found at

The RPM mentioned above includes a new version of libstdc++-compat, which
provides a compatibility library for egcs 1.1.x'ish libstdc++.
If you don't want to depend on libstdc++-compat, recompiling everything
using libstdc++ is the way to go.
Also, you should upgrade binutils along with gcc 2.95.2.
