Building perl fails during `emerge -e --system' (step 1.19). The failure looks like this (see also attached build.log), `sh cflags "optimize='-O'" regcomp.o` -fPIC regcomp.c cflags: ccflags=-fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -Wdeclaration-after-statement -I/var/tmp/2007-06-29/usr/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DPERL_USE_SAFE_\ PUTENV -fno-stack-protector: is not an identifier /bin/sh: -fPIC: not found make: *** [regcomp.o] Error 1 * * ERROR: dev-lang/perl-5.8.8-r2 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 1580: Called dyn_compile * ebuild.sh, line 926: Called qa_call 'src_compile' * ebuild.sh, line 44: Called src_compile * perl-5.8.8-r2.ebuild, line 289: Called die * * Unable to make * If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. * A complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/2007-06-29/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/perl-5.8.8-r2/temp/build.log'. Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. Adapt attached script for environment at hand. 2. Run script. Actual Results: During step 1.19 building of dev-lang/perl fails. See attached log. Expected Results: dev-lang/perl ought to build.

Some weeks have passed. I can no longer reproduce the problem, at least not on Solaris/x86. Step 1.19 completes without problems.
ok, I only had a db problem with perl, but didn't encounter any problems like this either.
