In most cases hardened just works. 

You may/will run into trouble when binary-only software (e.g. skype, nvidia-
drivers, ...) is used. If you can get along with an opensource-only system you 
will most likely be fine.

It's useful to be familiar with bugzilla, bug reporting procedures, ... and 
hang out on #gentoo-hardened in clase of trouble.
