(In reply to comment #9) > *** Bug 429968 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Patch works perfectly cross-compiling for armv6j-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi. I was working on sys-apps/groff-1.21-r1 and filed Bug 429968. The patch works for both ebuilds. In that report there's also a patch for the sys-apps/groff-1.21-r1 ebuild. Would that patch be relevant here? I can also provide the patch for the sys-apps/groff-1.21 ebuild.

Is a fix for this to be expected to arrive in the portage tree, soon?
I can confirm that the patch in c5 works for an armv6j-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi crossdev environment. Can we include it in the tree?
Mike, am I allowed to commit that?
should be all set now in the tree; thanks for the report!
