sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2 doesn't pass the 'test' phase on my AMD64 system. As far as I can tell this is the same problem already mentioned in bug 152126, and this bug requests to open a new bug so here it is. The test that fails is: GCONV_PATH=/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/iconvdata LC_ALL=C /va r/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/elf/ld-linux.so.2 --library-path /var/ tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl:/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/w ork/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/math:/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux- gnu-nptl/elf:/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/dlfcn:/var/tmp/portage /sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/nss:/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/bui ld-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/nis:/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl /rt:/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/resolv:/var/tmp/portage/sys-lib s/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/crypt:/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86 -x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/nptl /var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/math /test-double > /var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/math/test-double.ou t make[2]: *** [/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/math/test-double.out] Error 1 The contents of /var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/math/test-double.out : testing double (without inline functions) Failure: Real part of: clog10 (0 + 0 i) == -inf + 0.0 i plus division by zero exception: Exception "Invalid operation" set Failure: Real part of: cpow (NaN + NaN i, NaN + NaN i) == NaN + NaN i: Exception "Invalid operation" set Failure: Real part of: cpow (0.75 + 1.25 i, 0.0 + 1.0 i) == 0.331825439177608832276067945276730566 + 0.131338600281188544930936345230903032 i: Exception "Invalid operation" set Test suite completed: 2954 test cases plus 2585 tests for exception flags executed. 3 errors occurred.

you should of course post `emerge --info` with all bug reports
Created attachment 118328 [details] emerge --info output The emerge --info output that I originally wanted to include but couldn't fit in the comments section.
sys-libs/glibc-2.6.1 also fails on test-double. However, error is different: testing double (without inline functions) Failure: Real part of: cacos (0 + 0 i) == pi/2 - 0 i: Exception "Invalid operation" set Failure: Real part of: cacos (-inf - inf i) == 3/4 pi + inf i: Exception "Invalid operation" set Failure: Real part of: cacos (inf - inf i) == pi/4 + inf i: Exception "Invalid operation" set Test suite completed: 2969 test cases plus 2600 tests for exception flags executed. 3 errors occurred.

Seems fine on amd64/x86 with glibc-2.9. If it fails for you, open a new bug for the specific failure.
I currently have glibc-2.8_p20080602-r1 installed and I don't recall seeing this issue when running the tests, so closing seems the right approach (although I thing WONTFIX makes more sense as a resolution).
