With glibc emerged with the nptlonly useflag the mozilla-firefox 1.0.6-r2 ebuild fails with link errors (see below). If I re-emerge glibc without the nptlonly useflag then firefox builds without error. A workaround is the temporarly emerge glibc without nptlonly, emerge firefox then re-emerge glibc with the nptlonly useflag again. Firefox seems to run ok with the nptlonly glibc, but not build with it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. USE="nptl nptlonly" emerge glibc 2. emerge mozilla-firefox Actual Results: The build stops with the following errors: i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -fno-rtti -fno-handle-exceptions -Wall -Wconversion -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Woverloaded-virtual -Wsynth -Wno-ctor-dtor-privacy -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -Wno-long-long -march=pentium3 -pipe -Wno-deprecated -Wno-return-type -w -fshort-wchar -pthread -pipe -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -ffunction-sections -O2 -o xpcshell xpcshell.o -L../../../../dist/bin -L../../../../dist/lib -L../../../../dist/bin -lmozjs -L../../../../dist/bin -lxpcom -L/var/tmp/portage/mozilla-firefox-1.0.6-r2/work/mozilla/dist/lib -lplds4 -lplc4 -lnspr4 -lpthread -ldl -ldl -lm ../../../../dist/bin/libxpcom.so: undefined reference to `EmptyString()' ../../../../dist/bin/libxpcom.so: undefined reference to `FindCharInReadable(char, nsReadingIterator<char>&, nsReadingIterator<char> const&)' ../../../../dist/bin/libxpcom.so: undefined reference to `FindInReadable(nsACString const&, nsReadingIterator<char>&, nsReadingIterator<char>&, nsCStringComparator const&)' ../../../../dist/bin/libxpcom.so: undefined reference to `HashString(nsACString const&)' ../../../../dist/bin/libxpcom.so: undefined reference to `HashString(nsAString const&)' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status gmake[3]: *** [xpcshell] Error 1 gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/mozilla-firefox-1.0.6-r2/work/mozilla/js/src/xpconnect/shell' gmake[2]: *** [libs] Error 2 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/mozilla-firefox-1.0.6-r2/work/mozilla/js/src/xpconnect' gmake[1]: *** [tier_9] Error 2 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/mozilla-firefox-1.0.6-r2/work/mozilla' make: *** [default] Error 2 Expected Results: No errors.
