It has come to my attention that gcc ebuilds have been made to transition from the "nocxx" USE flag, to a (arguably) saner "cxx" flag. However, the latest unstable version of crossdev (=sys-devel/crossdev-20111018) enables the "nocxx" flag when building Stage 1 (-s1) cross-development toolchains. This can (and probably will) conflict with the new "cxx" flag. See the declaration of the GUSE_DISABLE_STAGE_1 variable on line 457 of the version of crossdev mentioned above. Reproducible: Always
On second thought, maybe it's the "toolchain" eclass that's a little backwards. There's a check in there to make sure that the "cxx" and "nocxx" use flags aren't both set, and both *not* set. That means that the GUSE_DISABLE_STAGE_1 variable should add "-cxx" to the list to actually make it work. I tested this locally, and that actually fixes my problem, but I imagine that this will soon have to be changed again to remove the "nocxx" use flag.

should be all set now in the tree; thanks for the report! Commit message: Version bump with USE=cxx updates. http://sources.gentoo.org/sys-devel/crossdev/crossdev-20111118.ebuild?rev=1.1
It seems that the tarball crossdev-20111118.tar.xz itself is still not in distfiles, not even in d.g.o/~vapier/dist/ ?
should be now
