Well, technically, no. But considering that some python modules are |

implemented in C++ and link against libstdc++ (which is provided by |
| 7 |
gcc), pruning old versions of gcc without rebuilding python against |

the new version first risks breaking python, and thus portage, and |
| 9 |
thus "would be bad....very bad." ;-) |
