iproute2 can not compile with uclibc because of lack support of ipv6. Bug #162885 is marked as resolved long time ago, but sufficient patches would not merged into portage tree. uclibc 0.9.30.1 and iproute2-2.6.31 has still have this bug and would not compile without additional patches.
Created attachment 237431 [details, diff] modified patch for iprout2-2.6.31 from bug #162885
now in the tree ... thanks !
This update completely broke my system. I get the following message when trying to start my network: net.eth2 | * default table webserver ... net.eth2 |Usage: inet_route [-vF] del {-host|-net} Target[/prefix] [gw Gw] [metric M] [[dev] If] net.eth2 | inet_route [-vF] add {-host|-net} Target[/prefix] [gw Gw] [metric M] net.eth2 | [netmask N] [mss Mss] [window W] [irtt I] net.eth2 | [mod] [dyn] [reinstate] [[dev] If] net.eth2 | inet_route [-vF] add {-host|-net} Target[/prefix] [metric M] reject net.eth2 | inet_route [-FC] flush NOT supported and now I cannot access my computer from any network card besides eth0. I'm going to try and downgrade and hope that works.
-ENEEDINFO. did you build it with USE=-ipv6 ? what exactly is your net config ?
> This update completely broke my system. Do you have system based on uclibc? This patch is MUST BE APPLIED only on uClibc-based systems that builded with USE="-ipv6"
well, I think it's something else now, perhaps something that updated in between emerges? #genlop iproute2 Sat Aug 7 22:43:23 2010 >>> sys-apps/iproute2-2.6.35-r1 Mon Aug 23 11:30:45 2010 >>> sys-apps/iproute2-2.6.35-r1 Mon Aug 23 22:55:19 2010 >>> sys-apps/iproute2-2.6.35-r1 Mon Aug 23 22:59:23 2010 >>> sys-apps/iproute2-2.6.35-r1 Mon Aug 23 23:04:20 2010 >>> sys-apps/iproute2-2.6.34 Mon Aug 23 23:10:57 2010 >>> sys-apps/iproute2-2.6.35-r1 I tried downgrading, I tried emerging with and without ipv6 but nothing helped. The funny thing is, if I start net.eth0 I don't get the said error, but when I start eth2, I do. The /etc/init.d/net.eth* scripts are identical. Here is my /etc/conf.d/net, which I haven't touched since my eth1 stopped working about a year ago: modules=( "iproute2" ) config_eth0=( "192.168.123.125/24 brd 192.168.123.255" # "dhcp" ) config_eth1=( "dhcp" ) config_eth2=( "dhcp" ) routes_eth0=( "default via 192.168.123.254" ) routes_eth2=( "127.0.0.0/8 dev lo table webserver" "default via 68.51.72.1 table webserver" "default table webserver" ) dns_servers_eth2="8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4" dns_servers_eth0="8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4"
if USE=ipv6 hits the same problem, then your issue is unrelated to this bug. file a new one.

IPv6 support. Apparently this is a leftover from historical uclibc support.
