Log of emergeing rep-gtk-0.18

With FEATURES="keepwork keeptemp" I poked around for a while; the bug appears
to be libtool trying to compare the default compiler string "gcc" with what it
was compiled with (?) which is "i686-pc-linug-gnu-gcc".

To confirm this, I build the ebuild via:

mauve ~ # CC="i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc" emerge rep-gtk

And it worked fine. Unfortunatly my goal of sawfish didn't work, same --tag
error. Same fix too, CC="..." and sawfish builds cleanly. So I'm going to
*guess* that librep is actually what to blame.
