Couple of things first.  Does 'gcc-config -l' show anything (ie: a list
of compilers still installed).  Secondly, you can relatively easily

No, I must miserably admit that it does not list anything.

restore a gcc by creating a binary package from another gentoo server
(I forget the exact steps for this, basically you can dump all the files
provided by an ebuild into a binary that you can install by simply
untarring it in your /) or use the binary package that is on one of
the install/complete CDs.

Is there a manual?  This wouldn't have anything to do with GRP, would
it?  I'm just throwing that out there as a guess since I think it was
GRP that installed Gentoo without compiling, something that saved me
soooo much time when installing.
