I installed gcc (g++ and g77) 3.2 last week or so. I added sarge to my sources.list, then ran apt-get update, then installed al the 3.c ompiler packages, then removed sarge from sources.list and ran apt-get update again.
I do this often, sometimes even from sid. When I run the apt-get install I use the -d -u flags first to see what it's going to do. If it wants to drag lots of other packages along at the same time, I sometimes change my mind and do without. There are probably more elegant ways to do this these days...
