I just let the computer get on with it in > the background :-O Sure, of course I'm not staring at the gcc lines scrolling by, but it gets in the way of compiling other things and causes unnecessary (in my case) CPU and power load for a program I use only rarely. Especially on slower machines, like my laptop which takes something like 4 hours to compile openoffice. In that case I think gentoo in general may not be the right choice (since, again, I spend more time emerging than I do actually using the laptop), but I don't like any other distro so whatever. :) Google Docs has replaced most of what little I ever use OOo for (opening random "office" files people send me), so the -bin package may be dismissed from my machines in the near future too. ;)
