Except that any changes to your CFLAGS make no difference to packages
that are not recompiled. If you really want the equivalent of a stage 1
install, you should do emerge -e world. However, most packages will be
recompiled eventually, so you would reach almost a stage 1 at some time.

If you were really bothered about this, you could check emerge.log for
packages that had no been re-emerged since the initial install.
