Better.... compile from source, make an RPM and install it makes not much sense...  RPM are useful only to distribuite it.

By using a package you make it very easy to uninstall something later.  I use checkinstall on the time to generate packages for custom compilied programs.  Then I all I have to do to uninstall the program is check a box in the package manager.  Checkinstall runs "make install" then generates a debian package and installs it.  There might be something similar for rpms.

checkinstall works same for RPMs ;)

I've uploaded a source RPM of gcc 4.0 that will be installed to /opt/gcc_40 the executables all have "_40" as suffix. It will create two packages gcc_40 and gcc_40-fortran. I didn't create the package myself, I took the gcc 4.0 package for Suse 9.3 from another packager. I didn't test whether it builds completely (no time yet, will do it today), but since nor suse 9.3 specific neither I did big changes (added some essential buildrequires and disabled gcc-gnat and gcc-java build) it should build correctly.
Here is the link: http://www.uploading.com/?get=O5PPGVII

To build the package do these steps:
1. run sudo rpmbuild --rebuild --target=$ARCH gcc_40-4.0.2-0.daniel2000.1.src.rpm (replace $ARCH by x86_64, i586 or whatever you have :))
2. the install the package /usr/src/packages/RPMS/$ARCH/gcc_40-4.0.2-0.daniel2000.1.$ARCH.rpm
