The compilation finally completed.  It only took about 14 hours.

I followed the info presented at the end of the installation and did, as
root:

gcc-config i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.3.2

and gcc-config -l now says:

garnet rmason # gcc-config -l
 [1] i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.1.1
 [2] i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.3.2 

I also ran source /etc/profile, as recommended and gcc -v now reports
gcc-4.3.2.

However, as an ordinary user gcc -v reports:

garnet ~ $ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
Configured with:
/var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.1.1-r3/work/gcc-4.1.1/configure (blah,
blah)

That is after running source /etc/profile _and_ (when that did not
change the reported gcc version) logging out and back in.

How do I set gcc to version 4.3.2 for an ordinary user?

Thanks,

Roger
