Platform is SUSE10 Enterprise SP1. The "X" USE-flag was added before doing `emerge -e system'. Emerging x11-libs/libXt-1.0.5, which is package 82 out of 99 for `emerge -e system', fails. The problem was first seen 2009-05-16. The console output is: >>> Emerging (82 of 99) x11-libs/libXt-1.0.5 * libXt-1.0.5.tar.bz2 RMD160 SHA1 SHA256 size ;-) ...

I had the same problem, not during bootstrapping but installing gentoo using the stage3-amd64-20090507.tar.bz2 which contains automake-1.10 (and not 1.9). A emerge =automake-1.9.6-r2 fixed the problem for me. Cheers Michael
I don't know if something has been changed, anyway bootstrapping today succeeds again (still applying the workaround of http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=263938#c10 though).
this was probably the fscked perl problem. closing, thanks
