Look, surely the logical, obvious thing to do is to install slackware and just dl whatever you need, when you need it, compile it yourself...and what's Gentoos advantage?
Yes of course - I mean if GLIBC is a significant factor, then why wouldn't re-compiling be significant? BTW I'm going to up my 2.2.4 to 2.6. tomorrow and (discounting downloads, which I've already done) will take approx. two hours.

I agree with you utterly.
recompiling was a significant factor
