Trying to install a new Gentoo system I used gcc-4.6 from the start. Trying to install sys-apps/memtest86+ failed, because only the unstable version 4.20 was fixed for gcc-4.6. Please stabilize =sys-apps/memtest86+-4.20 for gcc-4.6, as that version works fine for me. Version 4.20 last change was the gcc-4.6 fix nearly a year ago and I can see only a feature request bug (Bug 382757) open, but that symlink issue is the same for the current stable 4.00 version. Bug 383271 is related to grub2. Reproducible: Always Actual Results: =sys-apps/memtest86+-4.00 fails to compile: cc -c -Wall -march=i486 -m32 -O1 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-builtin -ffreestanding -fno-stack-protector -fno-pie -nopie test.c cc -Wall -march=i486 -m32 -O1 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-builtin -ffreestanding -fPIC -fno-stack-protector -m32 -c -o init.o init.c gcc: error: unrecognized option ‘-nopie’ make: *** [test.o] Error 1 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... That was fixed for 4.20 in Bug 363485 Should this block Bug 418383 (GCC 4.6 stabilization)?
friendly ping, one of the last bugs blocking gcc-4.6 stabilization...

Since we haven't heard from @base-systems that they don't want it, let's proceed. Arches please do your magic, TIA!
amd64 stable
x86 stable. Last arch, closing.
