emerge --info of the binpkg machine

since using binpackages I have run into this problem twice: kdm fails to start, kdm.log contains this:
********************************************************************************
Note that your system uses syslog. All of kdm's internally generated messages
(i.e., not from libraries and external programs/scripts it uses) go to the
daemon.* syslog facility; check your syslog configuration to find out to which
file(s) it is logged. PAM logs messages related to authentication to authpriv.*.
********************************************************************************

The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:
> Warning:          Type "ONE_LEVEL" has 1 levels, but <RALT> has 2 symbols
>                   Ignoring extra symbols
Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server
klauncher(8419) kdemain: No DBUS session-bus found. Check if you have started the DBUS server. 
kdeinit4: Communication error with launcher. Exiting!
kdmgreet(8413)/kdecore (K*TimeZone*): KSystemTimeZones: ktimezoned initialize() D-Bus call failed:  "Not connected to D-Bus server" 

kdmgreet(8413)/kdecore (K*TimeZone*): No time zone information obtained from ktimezoned 
Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file.

DBUS is started, on the "buildpkg" machine this problem does not exist.  Differences regarding Xorg: the buildpkg machine runs xf86-video-intel, the other runs xf86-video-mga.

I've had this problem a few weeks ago at home on two very different machines, but I solved it there by copying the whole system of the buildpgk-machine to the binpkg-machine.  I would not do this here at work.  But as that "bad" solution worked, I fear it's some configuration file or even permissions issue.  Question: which files should be considered?

me too,
plasma-desktop hang at start, deep inside qtwebkit, specifically the WTF library inside of it.
This is a mostly stable system.

Found no solution as of yet and re-installed half of kde.
Comment 2 Francesco Riosa 2012-07-30 16:47:05 UTC
USE=-jit emerge x11-libs/qt-webkit helped
Comment 3 Francesco Riosa 2012-07-30 17:36:41 UTC
ok, my problem was that CC and CXX were set to gcc-4.7.1 in the shell environment, slipped in portage and broke kinda everything

Is this still happening with current KDE?
