9 I don't see a reason to update the FAQ. Yes, if you know your system
10 inside-out and have an ammount of knowledge about the toolchain that
11 99.99% of all Gentoo users are lacking then you might be able to do
12 such an update. And yes, it is possible to go from Frankfurt/Main to
13 Offenbach via Mars. Both are not supported in any way, will cost you
14 *way* more time than it might possibly be worth and will be
15 considered useless or even stupid by the rest of the world...

17 Nobody's stoping anybody to try, but if we put something like "you
18 might be able to do it by [...]" in the FAQ we will end with a load
19 of people running into trouble while trying it and asking for help,
20 no matter how often and abvious we state "This is not supported in
21 any way and we will not help you if it breaks your system."...
