There is an ebuild for it on bugzilla and one here and some on forums
too.  Have you used any of these as a definitive base or is this a new
creation?

Also, is there any sign of this being entered into hardmasked or testig
state on portage?

I'd be quite keen on testing it out since I have had my fair share of
pentium4 problems and am desperately hoping an upgrade of gcc will sort
them out.

Pardon my ignorance but have all these patches been commented out to
prevent resultant problems or because they are no longer necessary?

Also, as a short note to those devs making a cflags guide to say that
the optimisation options have changed somewhat for gcc 3.3; an example
being -fomit-frame-pointer is now enabled by -O3 (taken from online
manual).
