You need to rename the gcc and g++ binaries in /usr/bin, then make
symlinks to gcc32 and g++32 with the original names, so 'gcc -v', the
default compiler, will be 3.2
After Oracle setup you can put them back.

Also, a good pre-install command to run is
yum -y install compat-db compat-gcc-32 compat-gcc-32-c++ compat-libstdc
++-296 libaio libaio-devel  glibc-kernheaders gnome-libs cpp openmotif
openmotif21 sysstat xorg-x11-deprecated-libs
xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-devel
