Hey Walter just a little aside in case.

I discovered that ksh93 depends on version gcc-3* in a brand new install where portage just installed gcc-4* apparently by default.

Its a very new and pared down system... but I like ksh93 and was sorry to see it needs gcc-3*... I doubt I'll miss it enough to start diddling around with changing versions of gcc.

I do have lots of script that won't run in bash without some changing.

So if you are a ksh93 person... maybe you should look into it.
