Wrong. An "emerge -e world" is required, if certain packages (like
qt) get compiled after having switched to gcc 4.1.1. See
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=134447

I needed to run fix_libtool

fix_libtool wasn't enough to get KDE stuff working again. I needed
to recompile.

to get the new kdelibs update to compile. But
I re-emerged qt, so I could try kdehiddenvisibility

That's what I did and then KDE broke. As flameeyes wrote in the cited bug:

| We can't really do much, when you rebuilt qt3 and qt4 you made a two-versions

and KDE continued to
work.

Not here.

Maybe i've not run one of the affected programs.

> Re-emerging
*everything* to fix a KDE problem seems like knee-jerk overkill.

Well, but that's what's suggested.

Anyway, it's plain wrong that NOTHING has to be done after upgrading
to gcc 4.1.1. Maybe an "emerge -e world" is required. And an "emerge
-e world" is *very* *much* from doing nothing...
