$ eselect news list | grep gcc

doesn't turn up anything.  When should/may one upgrade?

Thank you for the tip!   That's surely what's going on.

Others may chime in and say I'm wrong, but my immediate reaction would be an "eselect gcc set 2" to upgrade the active gcc. An "emerge --depclean" without that could easily leave you with a broken system - probably easy enough to fix but still a nightmare until you realise what's happened ...

If there's no news, then the change *should* not be a problem.

And if you're at all worried, follow that with an "emerge -e @system". Provide it runs successfully ... you will have a working system, even if bits of it break. Only downside, it will probably take quite a while to run ...

Cheers,
Wol
