That shouldn't happen. What compiler are you using?

Please attach your emerge --info.

Try building webkit-gtk without ccache (remove ccache from FEATURES in make.conf).

This is really weird, now it fails with a different error. I'm attaching new build log. Also, not sure if it's relevant but if I run

emerge -uNDv world then it tries to pick 1.4.1-r200 which is giving me this bug, but if I run 

emerge -1 webkit-gtk 

it picks 1.4.1-r300 which I haven't compiled.

Judging by your description and the log, I suspect that you have a hardware problem (e.g. bad memory) or that your gcc is broken somehow :/

That is normal behavior (1.4.1-r300 is the gtk3 version, 1.4.1-r200 is the gtk2 version, they have different slots and can be installed in parallel).

Yes, this bug should be closed, sorry for the fuzz, just emerged again and it did compile... I guess I'll have to run a memtest and or bootstrap the compiler.
