I figure upgrading to GCC 4.1.1 from 3.4.5 wouldn't be such a pain,

Yes, very much so. See my "Upgrading to gcc 4.1: emerge -e world required?"
thread.

These packages quit on me after telling me that the reported filesize
by the ebuild wasn't equal to the downloaded filesize.

Were the errors correct? I mean, did the filesizes differ?

I also had several packages quit on me

How?

If these are the type of problems we're going to see with 4.1.1, I
would have to vote that it stay masked.

Yep.

 "Testing" isn't even the word
for this so far.  I had to revert back to my 3.4.5 gcc and re-emerge
system after having too many errors to warrant continuing.

Hm. But there are people, who ran "emerge -e world" with gcc 4.1.1
and don't have problems. I suppose you'll only have problems, when
you mix 3.x and 4.x.
