I emerged the new gcc (3.3.2-r5)  (emerge -u gcc).
It seems that emerge removed gcc 3.2.3 INCLUDING libstdc++.so.5

This means that python no longer works:
python
python: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory

and that emerge doesn't work. (all other c++ based programs are also broken.)

I still have gcc-3.2.3.tar.bz2 in /usr/portage/distifiles and was going to compile it by hand to get
libstdc++.so.5 back.


Will this work? Anyone have a better idea?

(Guess I'll start backing up /lib and /usr/lib in addition to /etc and /home)
