There are a few changes in glibc-2.10 that might make your software fail to build with it, please refer to my blog post [1] if you're not sure what the problem is. Also make sure to fix it rather than sidestepping the issue [2] and [3].

And no I don't usually provide emerge --info with these bugs because they are caused by glibc-2.10!

Thanks, Diego
