That's called contrast, everything isn't supposed to sound the same, with no highs and no lows. Encoding everything at the same volume kills the range, just like the overcompressed recordings do. Same volume from start to end, with virtually no dynamism left.
That being said, I agree with Psyren, applying ReplayGain using Foobar never overwrote any of my tags. There must be another cause to your problem.

however you will occasionally get tracks that are abnormally low in recording volume and then REALLY FUCKING LOUD FOR THE ENTIRE TRACK regardless of what is being played in the track.

I've never had a problem with any type of audio file in Winamp. Maybe this is because I downloaded a keygen and unlocked Pro features?
I've heard good things about Foobar, but never used it.
I recommend Songbird if you like the iTunes interface, but dislike some of the features. Songbird supports Mozilla add-ons and it's open source. :] Here's a quick rundown.

replaygain has a few settings, and it isn't a compression algorithm
You can use either track or album replaygain settings and in a nutshell it adjusts the base volume of each track (or album) to a standard (since files can be encoded at different volumes).
I use it because a lot of my files come from different ppl with different ideas on how loud a track should sound (replaygain can also "fix" clipping in some files, provided the clipping wasn't in the soundwave itself)
As for winamp crashing on flac files, have you installed the flac decoders (i know winamp has it build in now, but maybe a different codec could solve the issue. Personally i've never had winamp crash for any of my files, flac or otherwise
