I'm still having trouble with this... especially wrt gaim.

I turned off threading support in perl, and gaim emerged fine
Jeremy, This is part of the reason I put the disclaimer in the perl ebuild if you enable threads - not all applications will compile against a threaded perl.
Since the only difference between threading and nonthreading perl installs is the inclusion of the -Dthreads, I'm going to dismiss this bug as CANTFIX due to the differences in the resulting perl with threads, not the build script.
This is resolved and shouldn't be marked new.
