https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Upgrading_GCC (note: most of the content
here appears to be related to upgrading to GCC 5.x).

Like the kernel, new versions of GCC are automatically pulled in, but
you have to eselect the new one manually (I don't know the reason; I
assume it is to avoid leaving the user with a broken compiler).
Personally, I just check the emerge output to see if a new version of
GCC was merged, and if so, I eselect it and rebuild libtool as described
on the wiki.
