OK, it sounds like you overwrote the FreeBSD system compiler.  You
need to reinstall it somehow.  Something like:

  cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc
  make depend && make all && make install

might fix your system enough to complete a 'make world'.  Otherwise
(or if you're not comfortable doing this) you could reinstall FreeBSD.

If you really want to install gcc 3 for compiling your own code, use
the port, which installs it safely so it coexists with the system
compiler.
