Well, technically, no.  But considering that some python modules are
implemented in C++ and link against libstdc++ (which is provided by
gcc), pruning old versions of gcc without rebuilding python against
the new version first risks breaking python, and thus portage, and
thus "would be bad....very bad." ;-)
