The problem seems to be in the line: emake CC=$(tc-gcc) || ... it should probably read: emake CC=$(tc-getCC) || ... That seems to let everything compile fine. 5:)

It seems that conf-update is unable to handle an update on its own configuration file...
darn, i committed the wrong ebuild it seems. the tc-getCC bug is fixed now in CVS too. As for the "it can't update its own config file": It's a known issue. The previous config format was a hack at best and the new one is more extensible, so this will be the only incident of this type. Since the package is marked testing exclusively I decided against adding more code just to be backwards-compatible. Most convenient way is to use etc-update for that single file, which is now mentioned in the ebuild too. Thanks for reporting :)
