5 Unfortunately, this is not true, at least on my non-eselect-powered x86 system
6 (which is default if you don't run ~x86), please see bug 114341 [3].

10 As a result of [1], `emerge -e system` wanted to re-emerge older version of
11 GCC (3.3.6 in case of up-to-date x86 system) which would in turn become the
12 default compiler. After some discussion on #-dev and #-x86, I've modified the
13 guide to `emerge libstdc++-v3` before rebuilding system. This prevents
14 rebuilding gcc-3.3.6 (and thus reverting back to the old compiler) as the
15 gcc-3.4.4-r1's dependancy on "sys-libs/libstdc++-v3 or =sys-devel/gcc-3.3*"
16 is satisfied.
