What the 17.0 Profile Does
The 17.0 Profile depends on gcc-6.x, forces Position Independent Executables (pie) everywhere and breaks random things. Its far from stable and changes may be added/deleted/modified ant any emerge --sync without warning

Position Independent Executables
That change breaks all the static libraries that are installed. I'm not aware of a command to rebuild static libraries but there probably will be one before the new profile goes stable.

I will be rebuilding @world because I'm doing other things with my Gentoo, just because I can.


 * gcc-7.1
 * gold linker
 * Olde Fashioned Gentoo

Should I try the 17.0 Profile?
If you need to ask, then No.
