I havent seen any blocking disagreements / arguments, so I'm going to push the 
patches later today. 

-> The new profiles will NOT have any entries in profiles.desc yet. For 
"normal people" that means DO NOT SWITCH to these profiles yet. <-

However, if you're involved with toolchain, languages, etc, already run gcc-6, 
and know what you're doing, feel free to adjust your profile symlink manually. 
You will have to rebuild all packages installing static archives because of 
the PIC flip.

All testing is appreciated, as is writing of documentation. Just be advised to 
watch this list for news since THINGS MAY STILL CHANGE in weird and wonderful 
ways.

As already stated, the new profiles will at earliest become "official" with 
the stabilization of gcc-6.

Cheers, 
Andreas
