15 The last time a rebuild of (almost) everything was required was when
16 the C++ ABI changed, with the associated bump of SONAME from
17 libstdc++.so.5 (provided with GCC 3.3 and earlier) to libstdc++.so.6
18 (provided with GCC 3.4 and later). So you were close, but the major
19 change happened with 3.4, not 3.3 ;).

21 Some old binary software still requires libstdc++.so.5, which can
22 still be installed from sys-libs/libstdc++-v3, which actually builds
23 part of GCC 3.3.6 to get the libstdc++.so.5 to install.
