-msse -msse4 -msse4.1 -msse4.2 doesn't look very sane, I think you should try with -msse4.2 only since it should imply the other -msse flags

Also unsure of -mcx16 -msahf, try dropping

these are the flags described in http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Safe_Cflags/Intel#Core_i7

there was an "emerge kde-meta" running in the background which must have modified something because now I can no longer reproduce the bug, sorry... should probably have stoped it :/

If you think I can still provide more information please ask.

Update sys-kernel/linux-headers and reinstall sys-libs/glibc.
