65 Given how old this system is, I think it will be easier to setup a chroot with latest stage3 and buildpkg system tools in it.
66 From the top of my head, you’d need to repackage portage and deps, python, gcc (you will love that one).
67 I suggest reading the wiki for gcc upgrades as 4.7.3 is really old.
