12 If needed you can enable multislot for gcc in package.use without enabling it
13 for binutils.. I'm not sure it cleans it on it's own. You may have to do it
14 manually. Basically you just disable multislot for binutils, remerge it and
15 then unmerge all other versions than the one you remerged...
