17 Among many other things
18 [ebuild UD] sys-devel/gcc-4.4.3-r3 [4.4.4-r1]

20 I think Thomas' hint helped a bit
21 equery d gcc shows one suspicious line
22 dev-java/gcj-jdk-4.4.3-r1 (~sys-devel/gcc-4.4.3[gcj])
23
24 where dev-java/gcj-jdk-4.4.3-r1 comes from the java-overlay.
25 This, in turn, has been pulled in by dev-java/icedtea-6.1.8.0
26
27 This dev-java/icedtea-6.1.8.0 from the java-overlay.
28 There seems to be no dev-java/gcj-jdk for gcc(gcj) 4.4.4
29
30 I have removed java-overlay from /etc/make.conf and rebuilt icedtea.
31 It's still compiling but I think this solves it.

33 Many thanks for all who helped me,

37 Thanks for solving that mystery,
