i dont think the segfaults applied to the 3.3 branch as the code was new to 
the 3.4 branch

the issues were worked around in 3.4.5 via specs filtering, 3.4.6 included one 
fix and i backported the other, 3.4.4 and older i dont know the status of 
(but i'd be inclined to push people to 3.4.6 anyways and cut 3.4.[0-4])

doesnt seem like a valid roadblocker to me ... but i see the toolchain as 
something higher up guys shouldnt have to worry/think about; fix the gcc 
bugs, dont work around them in ebuilds
