Despite lots of effort sys-apps/shadow-4.1.2.2 stops compiling on SPARC64 with pam, cracklib and nls USE flags enabled in every combination and with none enabled.

Created attachment 184823 [details] Build Log from second machine to fail compile
The build log is attached as requested. I have reproduced the same failure to compile on a much older box, which is where this build.log is from. I have rebuilt the newer box. I have had success compiling on a different SPARC64 box with a build with the current GCC and GLIBC versions which after lots of trial and error are the only obvious differences. Thanks for looking at it.
probably related to your old glibc if you upgrade to a stable glibc version, does the error go away ?
probably fixed now with some changes from upstream i added
(In reply to comment #6) > probably fixed now with some changes from upstream i added > Thanks very much for your help. That's looking good.
