[gentoo-user] GCC upgrade 4.6.3 to 4.7.3 - any gotchas?

[gentoo-user] GCC upgrade 4.6.3 to 4.7.3 - any gotchas?

[Tanstaafl]

Just asking ahead of time...

Any major gotchas with respect to this GCC upgrade?

Does this one introduce any ABI changes that require rebuilding the 
entire toolchain... or even world?

Thanks

It's an easy upgrade. Just remember to "gcc-config -l" and "gcc-config 1" or
whatever number you need active after the upgrade, then ". /etc/profile" and
some people have needed to re-emerge libtool (emerge -1 libtool). No need to
rebuild the entire toolchain on this one.
