Since these bit-stirring changes inside the binary are hardly user-visible,
yes, I think it was an overkill.  But it does not hurt, of course.  I just
do not like to rebuild things for no real reason.  I mean, if user is happy
with installed package (built with gcc46), why force him/her to rebuilt it
just for the sake of using different compiler?
