Same story

Well my openoffice emerged before the emerge world that accompanied
the gcc upgrade still works fine so I will continue to use that.  But
I am disquieted by no longer being able to emerge openoffice.  Clearly
something is wrong somewhere.  I guess I will stop pursuing it
actively and wait for some more symptoms.

Thanks for all your efforts.
