today I upgraded gcc from 4.4.5 to the last stable version

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...

I think you are correct. When you use the -u option, it shouldn't add
anything to the world file. Than again, weird things happen from time
to time. Take the two entries out and see what emerge says to a emerge
-uavDN world which should catch about everything. Then see what -a
--depclean says. If it tries to remove the older version then that may
be why it was added.
