6 currently only 2.x and 3.x are SLOT-able out-of-the-box ... if you want to do
7 some hacking of your own to see if you can get 3.2.3 and 3.3.1 together
8 g'luck but Gentoo wont be adding it to the tree (this question came up and
9 the request was closed as WONTFIX) ...
10 also, afaik, it seems 3.2.3 and 3.3.1 wont work very well together ... i have
11 a mostly 3.3.1 system and when i tried using 3.2.3 again (to test a bug in
12 bugzilla) it borked on me ... then again it could be my own stupid fault ...

14 also, if your reason is 'some things break with 3.3.1' then could you make
15 sure said breakages are in bugzilla ?
