How to install a specific gcc version?

Question

I'd like to install an older version of gcc on my Ubuntu Lucid machine. Particularly, I am interested in 2.95.3 or 3.0.2.

Is there any repository to download this package with the apt-get command?

Enter in this website and select the mirror to your convenience.
Then select old-releases and then gcc2 (for 2.95) or gcc3 (for 3.0). You should now see a few versions of gcc compressed.
Now you should click in the one that you want to have and the download will start.
Finally, you have to compile and install from source.
