Thanks alp, just to check if I understood it right:

SFE under http://sfe.opencsw.org/localhostoih/ is made for OI hipster, 
not Solaris, but SFE keeps same path and layouts to reuse packages for 
all platfroms,SFE is made for.

OI hipster now removed g++ from oi-userland consolidation so that SFE 
g++ and SFE packages will be working without collisions and g++ is now 
installed from SFE with it's packages.

Instalaltions of SFE g++ happens in place of previously OI 
hipster-compiled g++ and that is not the issue for OI hipster itself 
because it does not depend on them?

Question is what happens with current installations and are OI 
hipster-installed g++ packages replaced by adding SFE repository or some 
of them get replaced and some don't.
Are g++ packages from OI hipster removed from oi-userland of they are 
still there, but not installed by default, so one installing them can 
still see collisions if SFE is added to instal external packages?
