What exactly is it about the toolchain supplied with Gentoo that causes
you problems?
I don't have a lot of trust in Gentoo's patches, as they have resulted
in completely and utterly unusable ld, and (minor) data loss due to a
miscompilation by Gentoo's gcc, in the past. Also, being able to check
whether your own software compiles with a GNU toolchain is to me a good
thing.
Isn't this why gcc et al support the "vanilla" USE flag?
