latest world update suggested that I update it to 4.1.1-r3. Trouble is, emerge dies just somewhere at the end of the attempt when linking and testing some code fragments.

I have played woth this some more. I added keeptemp to my FEATURES and added couple of things to configure in libstd++v3 map, so i could inspect variables and events that lead to this. Interesting thing is that first pass completes and that this thing croaks in second pass, when complete new compiler is trying to compile itself. it first tries to link a couple of executables and it sets gcc_no_link according to linker's exit code. On first pass gcc_no_link is "no" and no the second round it becomes "yes". I have tried to make tarball on the similar, but not hardened system and unpack it here. "New" gcc works fine otherwise, but croaks when compiling gcc on the same spot... For teh moment I thougt that it migh be something with binutils and have emerged newest binutils-2.17 and used binutils-config to make system use them. All with the same effect- same error.
you'd have to post the config.log files as attachments to find out the real source of your problem also, run `emerge gcc >& log` and post that log file as an attachment
(In reply to comment #2) > you'd have to post the config.log files as attachments to find out the real > source of your problem > > also, run `emerge gcc >& log` and post that log file as an attachment > Eww, c*ap. It works now. I can't believe this. This has been bothering me for a few long months and on a day of your response to my bug#, problem dissapears. Pure coincidence ;o) ? Anyway, problem is gone, that is all that matters...
