Created attachment 287389 [details, diff] sample patch for expat-2.0.1-r5.ebuild
I don't think the patch is the right fix. Gentoo/FreeBSD usually use gmake and it goes without error here. BSD surely need sys.mk but gmake not. Not the bug of this package.
Closing. Please reopen if you think this is still a problem.
When you create a stage1 using catalyst, the same problem occurs. If it is not fix this problem, can not make a stage1. >>> Emerging (1 of 98) dev-libs/expat-2.1.0_beta3 for /tmp/stage1root/ >>> Failed to emerge dev-libs/expat-2.1.0_beta3 for /tmp/stage1root/, Log file: >>> '/var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/expat-2.1.0_beta3/temp/build.log' * Package: dev-libs/expat-2.1.0_beta3 * Repository: gentoo * Maintainer: freedesktop-bugs@gentoo.org * USE: build elibc_FreeBSD java5 kernel_FreeBSD unicode userland_BSD x86-fbsd * FEATURES: preserve-libs * Running elibtoolize in: expat-2.1.0_beta3/conftools/ * Applying portage/1.2.0 patch ... * Applying sed/1.5.6 patch ... * Applying as-needed/2.2.6 patch ... * Applying fbsd-conf/1.5.20b patch ... * Removing useless C++ checks ...

Why does it use bsd make instead of gmake? The real problem should be there, not dependency
(In reply to comment #5) > Why does it use bsd make instead of gmake? > The real problem should be there, not dependency maybe because sys-devel/make is built later and it picks bsd make as fallback i'll be building new stages once openssh issues get resolved i suppose so i'll have a closer look at this
