It is possible, although unsupported, to set CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS for a
particular version of a package. The bashrc for the base profile (which
all modern profiles inherit from) will attempt to source, if they exist,
the following files:
/etc/portage/env/${CATEGORY}/${PN}
/etc/portage/env/${CATEGORY}/${PN}-${PV}
/etc/portage/env/${CATEGORY}/${PN}-${PV}-${PR}
(where for sys-devel/gcc-3.4.6-r2, CATEGORY=sys-devel, PN=gcc, PV=3.4.6,
and PR=r2 (when there is no "-r#" part, PR=r0))
In one of those files, you can export a new value for CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS.
Note that not all portage variables can be changed in this manner. (To
be precise, variables that are referenced from the parts of portage
written in bash can be changed in this manner.) Also note that if you
have 'CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"' in your make.conf, this will set CXXFLAGS to
the value of CFLAGS *that is in make.conf*, so you will need to modify
CXXFLAGS as well as CFLAGS.
