Well, to my mind, the biggest problem with graphite is how it is |
15 |
dependent on libraries with funny names. Thus one should always, I |
16 |
think, at least keep a compiler of _some_ reliable version around |
17 |
compiled without it, and capable of building other gcc versions. |

I tend to keep quite a few gcc versions around, but then I like to |
20 |
program and occasionally to test on different versions. Also, being |
21 |
conservative, I generally use a newer version for development than for |
22 |
building my system. I do not move my system compiler to a new version |
23 |
just because I installed that version. One can always set the compiler |
24 |
per-package via /etc/portage files. |
