Since you're working on a pure-Python module (statistics), I'd recommend updating to the latest changeset that will build, and work from there. I don't know of any changes that would make it impossible for you to update to the last working changeset, build, update to 3.6 tip, and develop and test your statistics changes without rebuilding. You may have some test failures, just run the full test suite after update to determine which failures are not due to your development. Otherwise, I'd suggest compiling your own GCC, but I haven't tried that myself without the aid of Gentoo's package manager. -- Zach (On a phone) -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
