Given how old this system is, I think it will be easier to setup a chroot with 
latest stage3 and buildpkg system tools in it.
From the top of my head, you’d need to repackage portage and deps, python, gcc 
(you will love that one).
I suggest reading the wiki for gcc upgrades as 4.7.3 is really old.
