I was also wondering about what we prefer if Michal's suggestion is not
possible:
- Build support for other langs by default -> More time when we need to
emerge gcc or update it but less time as we don't need to rebuild for
that (I remember when I needed to build pdftk and needed to wait for a
gcc rebuild giving gcj support)
- Build support for other langs disabled by default -> Well, does it
save so much time to compensate the rebuilds we would need to do in the
future when we need to emerge some package some time?
