Discovered that my jails had stopped working. Re-emerged app-misc/jail both without ~x86 (jail-1.9-r1) and with ~x86 (jail-1.9-r2). Initially figured it was a problem with out of date executables, so I copied the current versions of all the executables and their dependent libraries into a jail. But when ssh-ing into the jail still didn't work I finally just tried executing /usr/bin/jail and I get a segmentation fault. emerge info: Portage 2.1.1 (default-linux/x86/no-nptl/2.4, gcc-4.1.1, glibc-2.3.6-r4, 2.4.31-gentoo-r1 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.31-gentoo-r1 i686 Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 1.70GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.12.5 Last Sync: Sat, 23 Sep 2006 08:00:08 +0000 app-admin/eselect-compiler: [Not Present] dev-java/java-config: 1.2.11-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.4.3-r1 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: [Not Present] dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.13-r3 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.4.26-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -fprefetch-loop-arrays -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/bind /var/qmail/alias /var/qmail/control /var/vpopmail/domains /var/vpopmail/etc" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/gconf /etc/init.d /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -fprefetch-loop-arrays -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache distlocks fixpackages metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.mirrors.easynews.com/linux/gentoo/ ftp://gentoo.mirrors.pair.com/ ftp://ftp.ndlug.nd.edu/pub/gentoo/ http://gentoo.netnitco.net ftp://ftp.belnet.be/mirror/rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo/" LINGUAS="" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X apache2 berkdb cli crypt ctype curl dba doc elibc_glibc expat fastcgi gd gdbm gif imap innodb input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse ipv6 java jpeg kerberos kernel_linux libg++ libwww maildir mcal mmx mysql ncurses nls no-htdocs pam pcre perl png postgres python readline session socks5 spamassassin spell sqlite ssl tcltk tcpd tiff truetype unicode userland_GNU vhosts video_cards_apm video_cards_ark video_cards_ati video_cards_chips video_cards_cirrus video_cards_cyrix video_cards_dummy video_cards_fbdev video_cards_glint video_cards_i128 video_cards_i740 video_cards_i810 video_cards_imstt video_cards_mga video_cards_neomagic video_cards_nsc video_cards_nv video_cards_rendition video_cards_s3 video_cards_s3virge video_cards_savage video_cards_siliconmotion video_cards_sis video_cards_sisusb video_cards_tdfx video_cards_tga video_cards_trident video_cards_tseng video_cards_v4l video_cards_vesa video_cards_vga video_cards_via video_cards_vmware video_cards_voodoo xml xml2 xsl zlib" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY
