A cross-compiler will not ever block the visibility of the normal gcc,
usually.  Any assumption they might is severely underestimating the
cleverness the GCC development team.  By at least a mile.

Most of it is installed in its own directory tree under the
/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib root directory, and the user-visible programs
will not be installed under the name 'gcc', either. It'll become
something like /usr/local/bin/i586-pc-msdosdjgpp-gcc, instead.  If you
do want it installed as plain 'gcc', you'll have to set up your own
copies of symlinks to do it. This you can perfectly easily do for an
individual user, only.
