When having FEATURES=splitdebug, the install target of the ebuild calls objcopy on the binaries and copies the debug info into another file, the original binary is then altered to include a link to the file containing the debug info. When invoking gcc or ld without explicitly stating what linker-script to use, the default is to discard the .gnu_debuglink section so the splitdebug step later on in the merge process will succeed in adding this section to the binary. In the case of building qemu-kvm, a special linker-script is used but this special script lacks any discard statement on the .gnu_debuglink section resulting in that the section already exists in the binary file when the splitdebug process is to be performed resulting in an error from objcopy. From my point of view, I can see two possible fixes for this issue. a) Add a line at the end of x86_64.ld (and the other archs) like this (taken from default script in sys-devel/binutils-2.21.1-r1): /DISCARD/ : { *(.note.GNU-stack) *(.gnu_debuglink) *(.gnu.lto_*) } b) Remove the linker-script completely and go with the default script. Why do qemu-kvm even need a special linker-script? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. FEATURES=splitdebug emerge =app-emulation/qemu-kvm-1.0-r3 # maybe also needs world to be merged with splitdebug (I have no system to verify this on).

You seem to have the issue understood and well researched so its best if you follow up on the ML.
