Created attachment 137836 [details] build.log The build.log was too large, I had to compress it.
Created attachment 137838 [details] build.log, correct this time

It is somewhat better with sys-libs/glibc-2.7-r1 - there are only 4 tests failing: iconvdata/tst-tables, math/test-double, io/ftwtest and crypt/sha512c-test.
I have similar results under ~amd64. make[2]: *** [/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.7-r1/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/iconvdata/tst-tables.out] Error 1 make[1]: *** [iconvdata/tests] Error 2 make[2]: *** [/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.7-r1/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/math/test-ildoubl.out] Error 1 make[1]: *** [math/tests] Error 2 make[2]: *** [/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.7-r1/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/math/test-ildoubl.out] Error 1 make[1]: *** [math/tests] Error 2 Portage 2.1.4.4 (default-linux/amd64/2007.0, gcc-4.3.0, glibc-2.7-r1, 2.6.24-gentoo-r2 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.24-gentoo-r2 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6300 @ 1.86GHz Timestamp of tree: Mon, 17 Mar 2008 15:46:01 +0000 app-shells/bash: 3.2_p33 dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.1.5 dev-lang/python: 2.5.1-r5 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.11.1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18-r1 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.0-r4 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.26 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.24 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -pipe -ggdb" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/php/apache2-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cgi-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cli-php5/ext-active/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -pipe -ggdb" DISTDIR="/usr/portage.distfiles" FEATURES="distlocks fixpackages metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms splitdebug strict test unmerge-orphans userfetch userpriv usersandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.prz.rzeszow.pl ftp://gentoo.po.opole.pl ftp://pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/gentoo/" LANG="pl_PL.UTF-8" LC_ALL="pl_PL.UTF-8" LINGUAS="pl" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/portage/local/layman/sunrise /usr/portage/local/layman/custom-kernels /usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X aac alsa amd64 apache2 bash-completion berkdb cairo cdr cli cracklib crypt cups dbus dri dvd dvdr dvdread encode flac gdbm gif gnutls gpm gstreamer gtk hal iconv java jpeg kdeenablefinal kdehiddenvisibility lcms lm_sensors logrotate mad midi mmx mp3 mpeg mudflap musepack mysql ncurses nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin ogg opengl openmp oss pam pcre pdf perl php png postgres python quicktime readline sasl sdl session slang spell spl sse sse2 ssl svg tcpd threads truetype unicode vim-syntax vorbis xcomposite xml xorg xvid zlib" ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic auth_digest authn_anon authn_dbd authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock dbd deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers ident imagemap include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation proxy proxy_ajp proxy_balancer proxy_connect proxy_http rewrite setenvif so speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse evdev" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LINGUAS="pl" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="i810 i830 i915 vesa" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LDFLAGS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
Seems fine on amd64/x86 with glibc-2.9. If it fails for you, open a new bug for the specific failure.
