I tried to upgrade gcc to fix a compile error in ghostscript, which seemed to want gcc-3.3.3.

gcc-3.3.3 - fbounds checking has been removed from the tree due to these types of problems on an array of arches.. Please try again with gcc-3.3.3-r2 Q) How do I unmask and begin testing? A) mkdir -p /etc/portage/ echo =sys-devel/gcc-3.3.3-r2 >> /etc/portage/package.unmask # Optional but suggested. echo =sys-devel/binutils-2.15.90.0.3-r1 >> /etc/portage/package.unmask ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -e system
Needless to say -r1 is no longer in the tree so this bug no longer applies.
