I wrote on my blog on that some time ago: http://klondike.xiscosoft.es/klog/2009/03/07/gentoo-hardened-and-gcc-4x-i-i= nstallation/ As for now I keep using gcc4-x for desktop and server use without major problems except a few packages who don't detected well the gcc version (and which seem to have been fixed).
