Get version 2.2.2.  It is included in the gcc distribution (you only need
to retrieve gcc-2.2.2.tar.Z).  You'll also want libg++ version 2.2 (which
is libg++-2.2.tar.Z).  You can get both of them from many sites; since
you're in California, you'll probably get the quickest transfer if you
grab it from gatekeeper.dec.com, directory /pub/GNU.  (archie finds 96
matches for "gcc-2.2.2.tar.Z", so there are many options).

There's good documentation for the gcc part included in the distribution,
as well as for libg++, but the only documentation for the g++ part at this
point is the manual entry, which explains the options.
