today I upgraded gcc from 4.4.5 to the last stable version
But at the and I noticed gcc 4.4 has not been unmerged

it contains these lines:

sys-devel/gcc
sys-devel/gcc:4.4


Because your forgot the -1 / --oneshot flag when manually upgrading gcc.

Hm, I always thought "--oneshot" was not necessary when
doing update. Even "Gentoo GCC Upgrade Guide" says just
"emerge -u gcc" (or "emerge -uav gcc" in DE-version).
The option "--oneshot" is used there only for libtool.

And I'm pretty sure I've never used "--oneshot" when
updating any packages, yet they have never been added
to world-file...
