Description Raymond Jennings 2014-01-15 10:10:43 UTC 
Attempting to disable the cxx use flag for gcc-4.8 or later is suicide because C++ is required to compile the compiler.


Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-01-15 23:52:41 UTC 
The cxx USE flag doesn't do anything in GCC 4.8 or later.
