Not that insane. Packages linked with libstdc++ are not crucial in Gentoo, and can be rebuilt with emerge -e @world. Although it's a bad idea for everybody to do so, the systems without "emerge -e @world" for two years is likely to suck anyway. It just reflects the fact that the world is not perfect.
