Sadly, Gentoo/HPPA doesn't (yet, ever?) support 64-bit operating systems.
we'll support a 64bit userland on hppa once binutils/gcc supports it however, i dont think that's related here

something is really screwed with your binutils ... that code is not conditional, it should always be built into your ld post the full build log of binutils as an attachment
Created attachment 130687 [details] Build log of sys-devel/binutils-2.17.50.0.12
dont know what to tell you ... output looks fine, but again, the code is not conditional afaict: (ld/lexsup.c) ... OPTION_NO_UNDEFINED_VERSION, OPTION_DEFAULT_SYMVER, OPTION_DEFAULT_IMPORTED_SYMVER, ... { {"no-undefined-version", no_argument, NULL, OPTION_NO_UNDEFINED_VERSION}, '\0', NULL, N_("Disallow undefined version"), TWO_DASHES }, { {"default-symver", no_argument, NULL, OPTION_DEFAULT_SYMVER}, '\0', NULL, N_("Create default symbol version"), TWO_DASHES }, { {"default-imported-symver", no_argument, NULL, OPTION_DEFAULT_IMPORTED_SYMVER}, ... break; case OPTION_DEFAULT_SYMVER: link_info.create_default_symver = TRUE; ... so if you have the surrounding options, you should have --default-symver ... about the only way i could figure it out is if i debugged it on your machine, or you looked into it ...
Thanks all for your help. SpanKY you were right, something was really screwed with my binutils: #binutils-config -l [1] hppa2.0-unknown-linux-gnu-2.15.92.0.2 * [2] hppa2.0-unknown-linux-gnu-2.17.50.0.12 [3] hppa64-unknown-linux-gnu-2.17 * but # equery l binutils [ Searching for package 'binutils' in all categories among: ] * installed packages [I--] [ -] sys-devel/binutils-2.17.50.0.12 (0) [I--] [ ] sys-devel/binutils-config-1.9-r4 (0) [I--] [ -] sys-devel/binutils-hppa64-2.17 (hppa64-unknown-linux-gnu) After having set the correct binutils profile I can now successfully compile sys-libs/db-4.5.20_p2
