Since you're working on a pure-Python module (statistics), I'd recommend
updating to the latest changeset that will build, and work from there. I
don't know of any changes that would make it impossible for you to update
to the last working changeset, build, update to 3.6 tip, and develop and
test your statistics changes without rebuilding. You may have some test
failures, just run the full test suite after update to determine which
failures are not due to your development.

Otherwise, I'd suggest compiling your own GCC, but I haven't tried that
myself without the aid of Gentoo's package manager.
