Connection to Int'l Flight at DTW

I'm connecting on a flight from CLE to AMS in DTW next Tuesday. Connection time is only 47 minutes, 13 min. below NW's recommended time. That seems like it's cutting it pretty close, especially if the incoming flight is at the end of C concourse and the AMS flight leaves from F14 or thereabouts. I called NW just make sure that was sufficient and the agent assured me it was. Anyone have any experiences with connecting to an international flight at DTW.

Also, if I do have to rush to catch the flight and general boarding is already in progress, can I sneak into line as a CO Gold? Just a question of etiquette here. What have other elites done in a similar situation. Thanks for any advice.
