Why do you advise people to ignore the official gcc upgrade
documentation and potentially break their systems? Safely performing
the gcc upgrade *requires* an emerge -e world. Your system /might/
not break without that, and you are free to take that risk for your
systems, but please do *not* recommend that others take on such risks.
If you want to tell people your experiences, that's great, but be sure
to separate the "what is recommended" from "what worked for me".
