Please paste the output of emerge --info and please also attach the full build.log. Thanks

Found a workaround: MAKEOPTS="-j1" makes it compile. Both "-j2" and "-j3" (which is my default setting) didn't work.
Confirmed here too.
Mine broke in a completely different place(building the docs folder) but this fixed it as well. Can attach emerge --info or build log if still needed to fix.
Ok, well the first bug should be easy enough to fix: gui/Makefile.am creates the symlinks using "install-data-local" when it should be using "install-exec-hook". Since I can't reproduce, I can only assume it'll work properly since it's the correct way to do these kinds of things... As for the doc building bug, a build.log would indeed help to figure out. However, I'm just tempted to force "emake -j1" in the ebuild since we are likely to phase out gdm 2.20 at some point. @Team, what say you?
Created attachment 168544 [details] Build log for 2.20.4(doc building crash) Same issue here, gdm will not compile with -j4, tried -j1 and it went through.

Sorry, had a mistype, gdm version is 2.20.7 in comment #8
hopefully fixed in 2.20.9. Please reopen if it's not the case.
I had the same error for gdm-2.20.11 even with the parallel-make patch. It compiles with -j1, fails with -j3.

Your bug is different than the one that was closed. Please open a new report with the information you provided here. Thanks.
I don't see how my problem is any different than the one presented by Thomas Pani. Both builds fail at the same step with the same error and using -j1 works in both cases. I created the entry #360257 as you requested anyway.
