We also need the real compile error (see the "Output" tab of the installer and
/tmp/compile_output.log).

Ok, i will reproduce the error when i'm back home and send you the compile_output.log :-) ... the "Output" tab isn't accessible any longer when the compile fails (i posted this as a seperate bug http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125335).

P.S.
Impressive, you guys are quick!
