I don't think gcc-config should depend on portage at all. Or does it actually |
| 27 |
use portage services. In any case it should be an RDEPEND, as building does |
| 28 |
not depend on portage being there. |

Portage does provide some very simple binary python modules. These depend at |
| 34 |
compiletime on python headers. Providing those headers separately might help |
| 35 |
though. Just as well as splitting out those modules. |
