Unmerge eselect-compiler, downgrade gcc-config, re-run gcc-config and try again.
Downgrade gcc-config to what version?
Wait, nevermind. But with what arguments do I run gcc-config?
Never mind again. But it still doesn't work. In addition, during the configure a bunch of messages like this appear: checking whether x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ accepts -pipe... ./configure: line 12837: "\-p|ipe": command not found

Thanks.
