Why do you advise people to ignore the official gcc upgrade |
| 9 |
documentation and potentially break their systems? Safely performing |
| 10 |
the gcc upgrade *requires* an emerge -e world. Your system /might/ |
| 11 |
not break without that, and you are free to take that risk for your |
| 12 |
systems, but please do *not* recommend that others take on such risks. |

If you want to tell people your experiences, that's great, but be sure |
| 15 |
to separate the "what is recommended" from "what worked for me". |
