I use a mostly stable AMD64 box. Among other things, gcc-4.3.2-r3 got stabilised just yesterday, and I chose it as my default compiler. I've just installed x11-misc/xvidcap-1.1.7 today on my AMD64 box. The problem is everytime I click on the red button to start recording the program quits with a segment violation notification. Is this normal? Am I the only one suffering from it?

Please try to provide a backtrace of the segfault. Have a look at this page where all necessary information about how to create backtraces can be found. http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml
The problem is now solved. What I did: 1) I didn't manually run "fix_libtool_files.sh 4.1.2", so I ran it. 2) Then, I rebuilt my whole toolchain with the 'emwrap' script. 3) Finally, I re-emerged xvidcap. I'm sorry about the 'bug'. To defend myself, I always run an "emerge --ask -v --depclean" followed by a "revdep-rebuild -v" after every daily system update, so I thought those issues were being taken care of by my usual procedure.
