I understand better now... thanks  I saw lots of threads saying to emerge -e system twice, then emerge -e world twice to people with problems with the toolchain... I guessed it was obsessive, and now, with what I read from you and the article (thanks to keenblade), I understand that this is useless 
I can't wait to have my notebook!  I hope they will be able to get it! I read on all selling sites that this is a special order (no one in stock ) |

Thanks. (at emerge.log) with my regular "emerge -vuDN world", they are upgraded with this order: binutils, gcc, glibc. I never did "emerge -e system", because I thought only networkless install needed it. So can I assume my toolchain is updated properly?

I would say yes... But I'll wait for 6thpink's answer |

 Toshiba seems to be "not" shipping the computer... ! I guess I'll have to wait for new models and a deal from the shop to try this out |

Don't forget to tell us your laptop model and the success story of installation, when you got it.

Yes
I even started my first wiki page (I don't even know if I proceeded correctly...)
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Toshiba_Satellite_A100-TA9
If I get this one, here it is... if not, I'll delete this wiki and let you know about the new one
I'm "supposed" to know what I will get with Microsoft will release Vista, then Toshiba their laptops |
