7 Step #1) Rebuild your system with gcc-5.4.0
8
9 Step #2) Tweak the Octopus overlay ebuild to accept gcc-5

11 The real requirement is to have consistent ABI across your system.
12 "Mix-n-match" is begging for problems. Still at gcc-4.9.4 on my system,
13 but I've added "-D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0" to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS.
14 Mind you, doing a fresh install, it would make sense to go whole hog
15 with gcc-5.4.0. Doing brain surgery on an existing system is more work.
