I switched completely over to gcc 4.x before it when stable in the tree, it 
started producing better binaries for most applications than gcc 3.4 
faster just a little before 4.1.0 came out.

I believe there's still at least one package that doesn't build with gcc 
4.x (kqemu), so there's some reason to still stay on 3.4 if you are 
cautious.
