I'd suggest 4.6.1, the latest, ..... Actually, it doesn't look like anything past 4.4.10 is in portage at all, never mind being masked. I'm sure there's a good reason for that, but... if you're running 4.6, then you must have a different way of acquiring it, outside of portage? Are you a Paludian? Thanks much... this has been a big help. The machine in question is my work laptop, and as I'm home for the weekend now, this'll have to wait till Monday, but I'll follow up if I run into any difficulty.
