When the devs consider it suitable for at least the testing branch or
when you do "echo =sys-devel/gcc-4.2*" >>/etc/portage/package.mask,
whichever comes sooner.

Bear in mind that GCC is almost certainly masked for good reason. It's
not like you're using a binary distro and only need a compiler for a few
packages. Feel free to try it in the knowledge that if it breaks your
system, you get to keep the pieces.
