Removing development tools is one of just a range of security measures.
It is by no means the be-all and end-all of security - hence my mention of
security in depth. There are easily a couple of dozen security measures I
implement when installing a box. Removing development tools (or in most
cases, never installing them) is just one of them, but we diverge...
Back to the original question. How do I run a number of gentoo boxes
without gcc (or a portage tree)?
