I was also wondering about what we prefer if Michal's suggestion is not possible: - Build support for other langs by default -> More time when we need to emerge gcc or update it but less time as we don't need to rebuild for that (I remember when I needed to build pdftk and needed to wait for a gcc rebuild giving gcj support) - Build support for other langs disabled by default -> Well, does it save so much time to compensate the rebuilds we would need to do in the future when we need to emerge some package some time?
