 From looking at the gpc package, I don't see anything in the include 
directory that is likely to cause a problem.  But, if someone has gpc
installed but isn't using it, it would be safer and cleaner to get rid
of the installation regardless of whether gcc 3.3.3 or 3.4.4 is installed.
But that's just my opinion.
