I have both too, and use gcc-config to switch when emerging qemu. If I select 
3.4.6 with gcc-config then run 'make qemu' mtn complains:
	mtn: /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.6/libstdc++.so.6: 
version 'GLIBCXX_3.4.6' not found (required by mtn)
	mtn: /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.6/libstdc++.so.6: 
version 'CXXABI_1.3.1' not found (required by mtn)
	Makefile: 28: *** Cannot determine version for monotone using "mtn -version". 
Stop.

Keeping gcc-config with 4.1.2 and tweaking Makefile setup-qemu to 
include --cc=gcc-3.4.6 after --target-list=arm-softmmu gets further, but dies 
after a bunch of errors in usb-linux-gadget.c

I have linux-headers-2.6.21 as suggested elsewhere, but it seems not to have 
made any difference. This is on x86 - I've had even less luck on amd64.
