Apparently GCC.GNU.ORG revised their frontpage, GCC 4.1 is no longer the current release series, but it is now back to 4.0.2
I am revising the CONRAD Script and will make version 1.0.2 with revisions tonightAlso I need to check over the CONRAD -ftree-vectorize and -ffriend-injection as they possibly may be causing problems with the compiler
It will be back to 4.0.2 soon, and will be based off of the NEW stage2 concept for installing

FAQ
-----
(1)(Q.) - What are they?
(1)(A.) - The Conrad "Lucky" Installation scripts are for installing Gentoo Linux, they are scripts to install Gentoo through traditional methods/compiling everything just automated to make things a little bit easier.
(2)(Q.) - Why are there 3 scripts? What does each one do?
(2)(A.) - The reason for 3 scripts is because not everyone wants to install it one way, with 3 options, there is something for almost everybody. the first script "Conrad" Script is based off of the Conrad Install Method and the most hardcore of the bunch with GCC 4.1 compiler, etc. The second script "Stable" Script is for installing gentoo through the handbook, except automated, it uses the stable compiler (currently: 3.4.4), and it adds NOTHING to package.keywords and unmasks NOTHING (unless optional steps are taken like Xorg 6.9), The third script, the "Unstable" Script is identical to the "Stable" Script except it uses ~x86 branch, compiler on ~x86 (currently: 3.4.4)
(3)(Q.) - Why doesnt it include an option for Xorg 7.0?
(3)(A.) - The reason for this is too much to unmask and dependency issues with Xorg 7.0, I have tested this, except openmotif fails to build from Modular Xorg (procedures for 6.8.2-7.0.0 upgrade in progress) It DOES however, include Xorg 6.9 option, which has IDENTICAL code to Xorg 7.0, except doesnt have the new "modular" build rather the "monolithic" build

!READ! !WARNINGS! !READ!
(1) - This is USE at own risk (I am not responsible for any system failures), please report bugs in this thread.
(2) - GRUB INSTALL, near the end of the script it asks where you would like to install GRUB to, this is ok, if grub-install works for you, on the other hand, for me, it doesnt detect my boot partition, and I need to install it manually through the 'grub' command - so, IF GRUB-INSTALL DOESNT WORK FOR YOU OR YOU ARE UNSURE, DO NOT ENTER A HD TO INSTALL GRUB ON (run 'grub' after script is finished to install grub)
(3) - These scripts can take a long time, they are all practically stage1 on stage3 scripts, as they all rebuild the system.

Because this is an open-source community I have provided the src on the mirror it includes all the build directories for all 3 scripts.
Do not claim them as your own* They are there to make any revisions and to work over, if you base a script off of them please give each of the "Lucky" Developers credit - (brainiac_ghost,cheater1034,and mdshort)

Conrad Install 1.0 Development
Working on new plans for the Conrad install method upgrade to 1.0,
Currently the plans include...
* Stage1 OR Stage2 build instead of building from a stage3
* Stable 4.x series AND Snapshot 4.x series compiler options
* Seeking a more optimized make.conf (Open for suggestions!)
* Slightly different toolkit build process
* e17 instructions
<!Looking for Suggestions!>
EXPECIALLY the LDFLAGS (a lot of linker errors -- I tried LDFLAGS with 4.x
