You're getting the two packages confused.  Gcc/2 2.2.2 does not
require EMX.  Just un-zoo the archives from the same place with the
"x" extract option.  It'll create all the directories you need and
place the files in them.  You should wind up with something like this:

/gnu
/gnu/bin
/gnu/gcc-include   ...
/gnu/g++-include   ...
/gnu/os2-include   ...
/gnu/lib
/gnu/doc

Once all the archives are extracted, read all the documentation.
There isn't much.  It'll tell you about four or five environment
variables to set.  Insert them in your config.sys file.  Note the
direction of the slashes, some paths use unix-style forward-slashes
for directory separators.  Others use DOS/OS2-style back-slashes.  I
think these are the necessary variables to set:

LIB=
INCLUDE=
PATH=
C_INCLUDE_PATH=
CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=
TEMPDIR=

There may be one or two more.

EMX/GCC is a different package.  I don't know about it, so I can't
give you installation instructions, but I do know that a file called
emx.dll must be in a directory on your LIBPATH in order for it to run.
If you installed any emx-based app (like gnu-emacs), then this dll is
already present.
