13 On a hunch, I ran "emerge -1 =ys-devel/gcc-11.2.0", after which
14 "gcc-config -l" gives "[1] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-11.2.0 *". 11.2.1 had
15 completely disappeared. So I copied .config to another directory, ran
16 "make mrproper", copied back .config, and the kernel build is happily
17 compiling away. For future reference, what do I need to do to ensure a
18 smooth transition between gcc versions?
