the last bug report i found for this is 1 1/2 years old, so i try again installation (emerging) of both ccc and cxx work with no errors after each installation i am told to run a ebuild config command these commands fail with similar errors exact output of ebuild config command: Warning: unknown distribution Gentoo Base System version 1.12.0_pre8 Using /usr/lib/gcc/alpha-unknown-linux-gnu/3.4.4 (4).

@alpha - is this still supported? Better to nuke the thing otherwise.
This is unsupported, broken, and unfetchable.
