Emerging --sync and --update world failed recently. Since than, emerging Gentoo packages or compiling any other package fails with "configure: error: C preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check".

I surely tried to compile without -m64 before posting this bug!
Created attachment 110954 [details] config.log for gcc-4.1.1-r3 libiberty (where configure fails) Obviously standard headers are missing... I still cannot find any config.log within the build directories of the linux-headers package, which would maybe give a hint why make defconfig fails.
(In reply to comment #7) > Obviously standard headers are missing... Obviously, since you haven't installed them (see your emerge --info). What are you asking for here? This is not a support forum for screwed systems, don't stick nonsense into your C[XX]FLAGS next time.

This is not a support forum for screwed systems, don't > stick nonsense into your C[XX]FLAGS next time. > 1.) I am unable to install the linux-headers! 2.) When the headers were installed (see original description of the bug), the same failures occured. Ultimately I unmerged the headers to see whether that changes the situation. 3.) The failures occured immediately after emerging --sync and --update world. So I suggested that one of the package installations may have corrupted the system. I thought it would be a serious problem if emerging packages corrupts systems. If this conclusion was wrong, I am sorry! 4.) At least, it would have been a nice add-on to get a hint how to come around the problem as the system is still "screwed", but I am aware that this is not the forum for solving one-off problems!
