Don't think these test are even remotely reliable/sane.
Similarly here... It seems, glibc-2.3.6-r2 is broken. The emerge went o.k. in my case, but then many applications did not work anymore. The message was always the same: 'xxxx: Accessing a corrupted shared library'. First time detected by vmware (even /etc/init.d/vmware start does not work), but downgrade to glibc-2.3.5-r3 failed with: 'checking size of long double... configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (long double), 77', and in the config.log was again the message: '/var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.5-r3/work/glibc-2.3.5/configure: line 7426: ./conftest: Accessing a corrupted shared library' The attempt to reemerge the glibc-2.3.6-r2 itself failed with the identical error during compilation! Return to glibc-2.3.5-r3 (problematic, because it cannot be recompiled) solved all these problems.
(In reply to comment #2) Entirely different issue, please keep on topic. And *never* downgrade glibc.
Sorry for OT; about downgrade: what else, if half of the system does not work, because of upgrade??

src_test() is not supported in versions older than glibc-2.5-r1 ... if that version fails a test, then open a new bug report with relevant information
