uclibc does not have nanosecond resolution. git doesn't check if the system uses uclibc and so the resulting code tries to make reference to members of struct stat that aren't available. Thus git fails to compile. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge git 2. 3. Actual Results: Fails to compile. Expected Results: Expect git to emerge. Compilation dies at builtin-fetch-pack.c: In function 'fetch_pack': builtin-fetch-pack.c:816: error: 'struct stat' has no member named 'st_mtim' make: *** [builtin-fetch-pack.o] Error 1

Created attachment 208214 [details, diff] Modifies Makefile to set NO_NSEC This patch can be applied on uclibc systems only by adding the following to src_unpack() in the ebuild: if [[ ${CHOST} == *-uclibc* ]] ; then epatch "${FILESDIR}"/uclibc-no-nsec.patch fi
I've just done a commit to 1.6.5.3 to fix this, using the regular mechanism to pass in the flags (no patches needed). Please test.
I tested git-1.6.5.3 and it compiles and works fine.
