When emerging perl, apache, python (and probably others) they stop right after the configure-part.

r7 is out, try that
With -r7 I get exactly the same results.
Ok, this is the weirdest behavior of Linux I've ever had... I ran into other problems (the libtoolize script failed, it just didn't recognize any of its input), a few other shell-scripts (created from various configure-scripts) failed, etc. So I started to suspect something in my bash or bashenvironment. I re-emerged bash (which failed, but it did compile bash so I could copy that to /bin) and logged on again, after that I could re-emerge bash (again, but it didn't fail this time). And appareantly this fixed the above problems... Why, what or when it got wrong? I've no clue...
check for rootkits. use qpkg and chkrootkit.
