Subject: [gentoo-dev] Proposal: add a compiler-version entry to pkg db

Hello,
today I hit this annoyance, because my laptop hung in the middle of an
'emerge -e @world' (checking that my world set compiles with
gcc-4.3... stopped at ~ 300 of 700  :S )

I was looking for an entry in /var/db/pkg/<cat/pkg>/ that could have
told me the compiler used to build the package, but couldn't find any.
indeed it would be a fairly useful feature to have, both for testing
purposes, and for user's everyday maintenance.

please criticize this with anything constructive you can think of.

thanks
