Currently my gcc is 3.2.2 and the gcc I am trying to compile is 3.3.2. The last supported gcc (by ./configure) is 3.3 so do I need to start applying the patches from the 3.2.2-3.2.3 and so on (all those 4 patches in logical order) or is it done somehow differently?
You only need to add the included "gcc-3.3.2.diff" file to the gcc/p/diffs folder, the rest is done automatically by the configure scripts.
Doesn't applying the patches break my current gcc as it is needed later with the same compiling?
No, the patches are conditionalized (and building gpc also will give you a gcc compiler).
