I noticed Dale's email (hi Dale!) [1] asking about which gcc / glibc
unstable to use.
Is there any consensus yet as to which 'gcc'? I'm planning on doing an
`emerge -e @system` on two fresh installs, one x86 and the other
amd64.
Should I go with 4.5.3? Or 4.5.2? Or play it safe and use 4.5.1-r1
(which, based on b.g.o search [2], seems to have less (serious) bugs
compared to 4.5.2)

Rgds,
Howdy,
I'm using this:
root@fireball / # equery list gcc glibc
* Searching for gcc ...
[IP-] [ ] sys-devel/gcc-4.4.5:4.4
[IP-] [ ] sys-devel/gcc-4.5.3:4.5
* Searching for glibc ...
[IP-] [ ] sys-libs/glibc-2.13-r4:2.2
root@fireball / #
The higher gcc is the one in use. Everything compiles fine. One thing
tho, I started a download and went to town. When I got back, I was
sitting at my grub menu. Most likely not related but wanted to mention
juuuuuuuuust in case. ;-) Yea, my reboot issues is happening again. :-@
