When doing a "emerge -v =sys-libs/glibc-2.3.5-r2", I get a "Internal error: Killed". The reason is that I ran out of memory and it killed the process off, however this is very non-obvious from the error message and the next person to find this condition might not be as luck as I tracking it down. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.type "emerge -v =sys-libs/glibc-2.3.5-r2" 2. 3.

If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message. Expected Results: It would be nice to add a hint like : i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc: Internal error: Killed (program cc1) --- Either someone killed the process, or maybe your out of memory?
not something that Gentoo would research/fix ... best to file a bug here: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/
