Unfortunately, this is not true, at least on my non-eselect-powered x86 system (which is default if you don't run ~x86), please see bug 114341 [3]. > [1] http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/x86/gcc-upgrading-guide.xml As a result of [1], `emerge -e system` wanted to re-emerge older version of GCC (3.3.6 in case of up-to-date x86 system) which would in turn become the default compiler. After some discussion on #-dev and #-x86, I've modified the guide to `emerge libstdc++-v3` before rebuilding system. This prevents rebuilding gcc-3.3.6 (and thus reverting back to the old compiler) as the gcc-3.4.4-r1's dependancy on "sys-libs/libstdc++-v3 or =sys-devel/gcc-3.3*" is satisfied.
