Yes, I was following it.

If you are not already running a hardened setup with PIE enabled, then
switching the profile involves the following steps:
If not already done,
* Use gcc-config to select gcc-6.4.0 or later as system compiler
* Re-source /etc/profile:
. /etc/profile
* Re-emerge libtool
emerge -1 sys-devel/libtool
Then,
* Select the new profile with eselect
* Re-emerge, in this sequence, gcc, binutils, and glibc
emerge -1 sys-devel/gcc:6.4.0
emerge -1 sys-devel/binutils
emerge -1 sys-libs/glibc
* Rebuild your entire system
emerge -e @world

Though, I still run onto the error I posted above but it is solved now.
