enigmail (currently 0.95.2-r1) fails to build when gcc-4.2 is selected (on my amd64 system). It builds fine when gcc-4.1.2 is active. The build error output is: rm -f libenigmime.so c++ -fno-rtti -fno-handle-exceptions -Wconversion -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Woverloaded-virtual -Wsynth -Wno-ctor-dtor-privacy -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -Wno-long-long -march=nocona -pipe -fPIC -Wno-return-type -w -fshort-wchar -pthread -pipe -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -O2 -fPIC -shared -Wl,-z,defs -Wl,-rpath,'$ORIGIN:$ORIGIN/..' -Wl,-h,libenigmime.so -o libenigmime.so nsEnigModule.o -Wl,-rpath,'$ORIGIN:$ORIGIN/..' -Wl,--whole-archive ../src/libenigmime_s.a ../ipc/src/libipc_s.a -Wl,--no-whole-archive -L../../../../dist/bin -L../../../../dist/lib -L../../../../dist/bin -lxpcom -lxpcom_core -L../../../../dist/lib -lxpcom_compat -Wl,-R/usr/lib64/nspr -L/usr/lib64/nspr -lplds4 -lplc4 -lnspr4 -lpthread -ldl -Wl,--version-script -Wl,../../../../build/unix/gnu-ld-scripts/components-version-script -Wl,-Bsymbolic -ldl -lm /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.2.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: nsEnigModule.o: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against `NS_NewGenericModule2(nsModuleInfo const*, nsIModule**)' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.2.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status gmake[2]: *** [libenigmime.so] Error 1 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/x11-plugins/enigmail-0.95.2-r1/work/mozilla/mailnews/extensions/enigmail/build' This seems to be a problem that should be fixed by upstream, but I though I'd post it anyway ;) Maybe this can be fixed with a simple patch.
Here is my emerge --info, if relevant.

(In reply to comment #2) > Please search before reporting bugs. Guess I shouldn't have searched for enigmail, but instead have gone through the gcc-bugs. My bad.
