There is no reason to limit yourself to one compiler :)

As a matter of fact, I always recommend that, when building your own gcj for 
building PyLucene, one doesn't supercede the default OS compiler with that new 
gcj. This is why I suggest configuring the gcj 4.2.0 build with 
--prefix=/usr/local/gcc-4.2.0 so that gcj 4.2.0 remains isolated in its own 
install tree.
