:Is it a bad idea to move /usr/lib/gcc3/lib*.so* into /usr/lib/compat
:(and perhaps ldconfig -m), before removing the gcc3 directory? Since we
:encouraged to build ports with gcc3, programs or libraries linked against
:libstdc++.so.4 are suddenly broken and it'll surprise users(at least me).

    It probably is a bad idea and we should not do that in the future.  But
    I think for this time only (prior to our first release), we should try
    to nuke as much old stuff as possible.
