Originally I posted a problem with a corrupted portage file. That has

packages, and using revdep and what not. Now, I have a conflict that I
cannot figure out how to resolve. The first time I got this failure,
I tried just emerging gcc. I thought it brought in version 4.someting,
but I find that I still have 3.3.6, which I would have thought to be new
enough to build glibc.
Try typing in:
gcc-config -l
You will probably get something like the following (except with 3.3.6):
[1] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-20050130 *
[2] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-20050130-hardened
[3] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-20050130-hardenednopie
[4] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-20050130-hardenednopiessp
[5] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-20050130-hardenednossp
[6] i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.1.1
These are the different versions of gcc that are available on your
system. The one marked with the asterisk (*) is your current default
compiler. At this point, you could issue a:
gcc-config 6
Yes, that and the links helped. Thanks.
One day, I will sort out all the rest of the issues that keep
cropping up. If I had just done a clean install, it would likely
have worked, but I have had trouble with the 2007.0 Live CD
failing in ways I do not even know how to report, so I tried to
just upgrade. Now, I am in a USE flag hell of my own making. :-(
Thanks again for the pointers. I installed the various compiler
versions, but not gotten the correct one configured as default.
