I recently upgraded my SGI O2s to gcc-4.1.1 following the upgrade guide. All went smoothly, and I ended up with
Code:
huey ~ # gcc-config -l
 [1] mips-unknown-linux-gnu-3.4.6
 [2] mips-unknown-linux-gnu-3.4.6-hardenednopiessp
 [3] mips-unknown-linux-gnu-4.1.1 *  (* is green)
 [4] mips64-unknown-linux-gnu-3.4.6 * (* is blue)
 [5] mips64-unknown-linux-gnu-4.1.1
huey ~ # eix kgcc
[I] sys-devel/kgcc64
     Available versions:
        (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4)       3.4.6
        (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.1)       4.1.1
     Installed:           3.4.6(x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4) 4.1.1(x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.1)
     Homepage:            http://gcc.gnu.org/
     Description:         64bit kernel compiler

Doing emerge -aC =sys-devel/gcc-3.4* gets rid of gcc-3.4.6, but is there some secret option to gcc-config to move the blue dot to mips64-unknown-linux-gnu-4 before unmerging it? I didn't find a kgcc-config around. I just want to make sure the system knows where the cross compiler is at. Perhaps the little "*" do.

Best regards,
/iMike

green dot = active native compiler
blue dot = active cross-compiler

you use `gcc-config` to select active for any compiler

you still have two kgcc versions installed

Thanks for the tip. It worked fine. I just did gcc-config to select the cross compiler and then got rid of the 3.4 version:
Code:

gcc-config mips64-unknown-linux-gnu-4.1.1
emerge -aC =sys-devel/kgcc64-3.4*

so now I just have the two 4.1.1 compilers:
Code:

louie ~ # gcc-config -l
 [1] mips-unknown-linux-gnu-4.1.1 *
 [2] mips64-unknown-linux-gnu-4.1.1 *
