11 - From the ati-drivers ebuild, you can see that it depends on
12 =virtual/libstdc++-3.3*. And in that ebuild, you see that this can be
13 provided either by =sys-libs/libstdc++-v3-3.3* or =sys-devel/gcc-3.3*.
14 Why it prefers the latter is not quite clear to me, probably because you
15 already have the gcc package installed (albeit in another slot).
