i somehow borked my system (i dont know how exactly). However X refuses to start... So i decided to remerge xorg-x11 but that doesnt work either. I tried to emerge 6.8.99.15-r1 as well but it exits with the same error Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge xorg-x11 2. 3.

You could try re-merging glibc, but take a look at http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-352852-highlight-dlsym.html first. (Just go to the bottom) and http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-357715-highlight-dlsym.html . Hope those help. Let me know how it turns out.
this one gave me the hint: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-357715-highlight-dlsym.html I had to move /usr/lib/ to another partition and link it back because my / ran out of space. well, i try to find another solution
yes, its solved! Thanks a lot. I was close to madness linking /usr/lib/ around is a bad idea. I used 'mount --bind' instead and xorg just finished compiling without any problems
Since this was a space issue I'm marking as INVALID. Thanks for letting letting me know :)
