Created attachment 104394 [details] config.log file from portage pertaining to xfsprogs
your system is broken some how ... my guess is your glibc install is corrupt or your weird mounts are screwing it all up
Aah yes, sorry, my mistake. I had set up /var and /usr as symbolic links to elsewhere, which I now see portage doesn't like. They're bound (mount -o bind) in place now, which is much nicer. Thanks for your help.
