Did you upgrade/downgrade gcc/glibc in the last few days ?
Ivan, well?
I have not upgraded glibc or gcc recently. Now fontconfig also fails to emerge (bug #21195), so I can't even get around to emerging xfree...
Well, I fixed fontconfig, but xfree still fails with the same error. Any more suggestions?
why do you have 2 different versions of glibc installed? (look at the emerge info output you pasted). I have a feeling you've been playing around with glibc/gcc versions.
What do you mean by "playing around"? I've been just steadily upgrading the system since about Gentoo 1.1 or so. I imagine the older glibc is still needed by some packages, otherwise `emerge clean` would have gotten rid of it, right? If not, let me know how to remove the old version.
sorry I should have been clearer. Seems as though you have had multiple versions of glibc/gcc going back and forth. I would recommend you to re-emerge gcc because those things it is missing are part of libstdc++
Okay, so I managed to remove the older version of glibc, then I re-emerged gcc, but building xfree fails with the exact same error. Here's the output of 'emerge info' again.

can you try export MAKEOPTS="-j2" and try please? if this is being distcc'd please disable distcc
Tried "-j2". Same error.
Looks like glxinfo isn't linking with libstdc++. You can force this by appending '-lstdc++' to the GLULIB variable in xc/programs/glxinfo/Makefile. Not sure of the proper way of doing this w/in the ebuild framework ...
looks like it is using "gcc" rather than "g++" when compiling those glx programs.
I can get it to compile and install if I add -lstdc++, or if I use g++ instead of gcc. Now the question is how to tell Imake to do this.
What is CXX set to ? # source /etc/profile; echo $CXX
bash-2.05b# whoami root bash-2.05b# source /etc/profile bash-2.05b# echo $CXX g++ bash-2.05b#
Hrmph, so it turns out that my environment was kind of confused because I had added some mounted directories (containing shared libs/binaries) to my PATH. Some utilities were using these, some weren't, and the whole system was generally getting confused. After a fresh reinstall without adding these mounts until all was said and done, everything works fine. Doesn't seem to be a Gentoo problem ...
glad to hear that, coz this was confusing as hell.
Um, I don't know that I categorize this as INVALID. I mean, it did cause a few people quite a bit of grief for a while. Perhaps some sort of entry in the FAQ or whatever would be appropriate ...
I'mn a dev and one that can work around most problems and I can confirm that glxinfo/glxgears also don't compile for me. The conditions are slightly different for me. But more or less it's also libstd++ and undefined references to _Unwind_blah@GCC_3.3 symbols that are not even supported or (should be enabled) in any glibc/gcc. I worked around the problem of xorg not not building the glx toys by adding. if use !glxtoys; then einfo "We are going to skip building glxgears glxinfo" sed -i -e s:'glxinfo':'':g -i -e s:'glxgears':'':g \ ${S}/programs/Imakefile || die "sed: glx failed" fi My last attempt to recompile xorg without the following modifcations failed.
