Currently we are forcing people to either have gcc-3.3 installed, or libstdc++-v3 so that old packages that weren't recompiled yet don't break, and binary packages that need libstdc++.so.5 don't break horribly as well. I'd like to see this dependency in the gcc ebuilds go away and all of the binary packages in the tree depend on the libstdc++ version they need. This will make things easier in the future so we don't need to force 2 or 3 libstdc++'s on users just so other possible packages may work.
So, everyone that has a binary package in the tree, I would appreciate it if
you could put the sys-libs/libstdc++-v3 depend into your package if
necessary.
