The occurence of this bug occured as I wanted to upgrade to the last gnome-terminal. I got an compilation error about libIDL. Back to libIDL, got an compilation error about flex (version installed: 2.5.31). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Unmask >=sys-devel/flex-2.5.23 2. emerge -u flex 3. emerge libIDL Actual Results: bash $ emerge libIDL ... gcc -DPACKAGE_NAME=\"\" -DPACKAGE_TARNAME=\"\" -DPACKAGE_VERSION=\"\" -DPACKAGE_STRING=\"\" -DPACKAGE_BUGREPORT=\"\" -DLIBIDL_VERSION=\"0.8.1\" -DHAVE_CPP_PIPE_STDIN=1 -DCPP_NOSTDINC=\"\" "-DCPP_PROGRAM=\"gcc -E\"" -DYYTEXT_POINTER=1 -DSTDC_HEADERS=1 -DHAVE_SYS_TYPES_H=1 -DHAVE_SYS_STAT_H=1 -DHAVE_STDLIB_H=1 -DHAVE_STRING_H=1 -DHAVE_MEMORY_H=1 -DHAVE_STRINGS_H=1 -DHAVE_INTTYPES_H=1 -DHAVE_STDINT_H=1 -DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1 -DHAVE_DLFCN_H=1 -DSTDC_HEADERS=1 -DHAVE_STDDEF_H=1 -DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1 -DHAVE_WCHAR_H=1 -DHAVE_POPEN=1 -DHAVE_SYMLINK=1 -DHAVE_ACCESS=1 -DSIZEOF_LONG_LONG=8 -I. -I. -DYYDEBUG=1 -DYYERROR_VERBOSE=1 -DIDL_LIBRARY -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -DG_LOG_DOMAIN=\"libIDL\" -Wall -Wunused -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe -g -g -g -g -g -c lexer.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/lexer.lo <stdout>:2470: warning: no previous prototype for `__IDL_get_lineno' <stdout>:2479: warning: no previous prototype for `__IDL_get_in' <stdout>:2487: warning: no previous prototype for `__IDL_get_out' <stdout>:2495: warning: no previous prototype for `__IDL_get_leng' <stdout>:2504: warning: no previous prototype for `__IDL_get_text' <stdout>:2513: warning: no previous prototype for `__IDL_set_lineno' <stdout>:2525: warning: no previous prototype for `__IDL_set_in' <stdout>:2530: warning: no previous prototype for `__IDL_set_out' <stdout>:2535: warning: no previous prototype for `__IDL_get_debug' <stdout>:2540: warning: no previous prototype for `__IDL_set_debug' <stdout>:2546: warning: no previous prototype for `__IDL_lex_destroy' ./lexer.l: In function `__IDL_lex_cleanup': ./lexer.l:394: error: `YY_NEW_FILE' undeclared (first use in this function) ./lexer.l:394: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once ./lexer.l:394: error: for each function it appears in.) <stdout>: At top level: <stdout>:1976: warning: `__IDL_unput' defined but not used make: *** [lexer.lo] Error 1 !!!

try libIDL-0.8.2 instead, if i remember correctly that fixed the flex issue. And please attach relevant output (gnome-terminal), don't provide links. Hm and btw, this is just the reason why flex is masked, so you were asking for trouble
waiting for confirmation
