You have the +hardened USE flag set. Did you just recently switch to the hardened profile? If so, make sure you followed the upgrade guide for hardened profiles, which should have warned you what was going to happen here. In the base system, gcc-4.4 is still masked off for hardened users because it's not quite ready for production use. If you want to use gcc 4.4 and all it's hardened features, you need to do two things: 1. Add the hardened-development overlay, for example using layman: basement ~ # layman -a hardened-development 2. Unmask gcc-4.4: basement ~ # mkdir /etc/portage/package.unmask basement ~ # echo '=sys-devel/gcc-4.4*' >> /etc/portage/package.unmask/hardened After that, you should get gcc 4.4.3 back.
