  Step #1) Rebuild your system with gcc-5.4.0

  Step #2) Tweak the Octopus overlay ebuild to accept gcc-5

  The real requirement is to have consistent ABI across your system.
"Mix-n-match" is begging for problems.  Still at gcc-4.9.4 on my system,
but I've added "-D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0" to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS.
Mind you, doing a fresh install, it would make sense to go whole hog
with gcc-5.4.0.  Doing brain surgery on an existing system is more work.
