After emerging gcc 3.3.2 i encountered several crashes and noticed after trying to emerge several apps (like bind), that most emerges fail with LD: Not a valid object file output. I first thought the crashes are due to some inproper kernel, recompiling with 3.3.2 produced only more crashes (the old was compiled with 3.3.1), after reemerging 3.3.1 everything worked fine again. the only components emerged together with gcc 3.3.2 were the latest bindutils ebuild and the latest glibc ebuild, both were reemerged again with gcc 3.3.1 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. It's a smp system for the case that matters... output from emerge info: System uname: 2.4.21 i686 Pentium III (Coppermine) Gentoo Base System version 1.4.3.11 ccache version 2.3 [enabled] ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/qmail/control /usr/share/config /usr/kde/2/share/confi g /usr/kde/3/share/config /var/bind" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="sandbox ccache autoaddcvs" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://gentoo.inode.at/source/ ftp://ftp.easynet.nl/mirror/gentoo/ http://ftp.easynet.nl/mirror/gentoo/ http://gentoo.inode.at/ ftp://gentoo.linux.no/pub/gentoo/" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 oss apm arts avi crypt encode foomaticdb gif gpm imlib libg++ mad mikmod motif mpeg ncurses nls oggvorbis opengl quicktime sdl spell svga truetype xml2 xmms xv zlib gdbm berkdb slang readline java tcpd pam libwww ssl perl python -X -gtk -cups -tiff -jpeg -png -gnome -kde -qt -pdflib -alsa apache2 -mysql"
Actually i mean binutils-2.14.90.0.6-r7 , not bindutils, sorry for the typo

This should be fixed by -r5 already. I do not get these anymore ... (did, but not more rare than you it seems).
can we close this bug?
please re-open if latest gcc/binutils doesnt work out for you
