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. And no I don't usually provide emerge --info with these bugs because they are caused by glibc-2.10! Thanks, Diego [1] http://blog.flameeyes.eu/2009/05/24/c-libraries-galore

Created attachment 198634 [details, diff] Fix compilation with glibc-2.10.1 and also remove some warnings It would be a pity to see this nice package die just because a few lines need to be patched. The attached patch is a bit longer since it also fixes the "obsolete conversion" warnings. I do not know what should be wrong w.r.t. autotools - here it compiles fine and shows no strange warnings. Moreover, although alsa output from bug 98769 would be nice, it works fine with oss (also with oss emulation of alsa): Also many other packages have problems with alsa (e.g. mplayer is on my system unusable with alsa).
Try to eautoreconf it for example; it's a prereq to get the ALSA bug fixed... since it modifies configure.in, IIRC.
