This happens with 0.62.2 too, but only with "postgres" USE flag and only on amd64 architecture. Since the build complains about 64bit architectures in general, I'm not sure whether to change Hardware to "amd64"
this should be resolved in libpq 8.3, which is marked as unstable on all architectures. 8.1.11 is latest stable, but it needs additional header file(s) to include
Well, stop using the developer profile. That'll stop making every warning fatal. Re: postgres, there's postgresql-{base,server} with 8.4.1 available. They replace the old libpq/postgresql ebuilds and should be stable soon.

Fixed within 0.63.0 (but the "fix" is only requiring an up-to-date postgresql-installation, if your system is up-to-date, you won't see this).
