Accidentally removed the NPTL-flag when revising my USEflags, and glibc was reemerged without NPTL capability (note: this is _after_ i had successfully installed a working system, and had it working for about a month, without a single glitch. glibc was compiled _with_ NPTL support during bootstrap.). Now when tring to emerge with NPTL once again in the USEflags I get this: gcc ../nptl/sysdeps/pthread/sigprocmask.c -c -std=gnu99 -O2 -Wall -Winline -Wstrict-prototypes -Wwrite-strings -freorder-blocks -march=athlon-mp -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -fPIC -I../include -I. -I/var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.2-r9/work/glibc-2.3.2/buildhere/signal -I.. -I../libio -I../nptl -I/var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.2-r9/work/glibc-2.3.2/buildhere -I../sysdeps/i386/elf -I../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/i686 -I../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386 -I../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux -I../nptl/sysdeps/pthread -I../sysdeps/pthread -I../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv -I../nptl/sysdeps/unix -I../nptl/sysdeps/i386/i686 -I../nptl/sysdeps/i386 -I../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386 -I../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux -I../sysdeps/gnu -I../sysdeps/unix/common -I../sysdeps/unix/mman -I../sysdeps/unix/inet -I../sysdeps/unix/sysv/i386 -I../sysdeps/unix/sysv -I../sysdeps/unix/i386 -I../sysdeps/unix -I../sysdeps/posix -I../sysdeps/i386/i686/fpu -I../sysdeps/i386/i686 -I../sysdeps/i386/i486 -I../nptl/sysdeps/i386/i486 -I../sysdeps/i386/fpu -I../sysdeps/i386 -I../sysdeps/wordsize-32 -I../sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-96 -I../sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64 -I../sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32 -I../sysdeps/ieee754 -I../sysdeps/generic/elf -I../sysdeps/generic -nostdinc -isystem /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/include -isystem /lib/modules/2.6.3-gentoo-r1/build/include -D_LIBC_REENTRANT -D_LIBC_REENTRANT -include ../include/libc-symbols.h -DPIC -DSHARED -o /var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.2-r9/work/glibc-2.3.2/buildhere/signal/sigprocmask.os -MD -MP -MF /var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.2-r9/work/glibc-2.3.2/buildhere/signal/sigprocmask.os.dt ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c: In function `raise': ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c:49: error: `__NR_tgkill' undeclared (first use in this function) ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c:49: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c:49: error: for each function it appears in.) make[2]: *** [/var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.2-r9/work/glibc-2.3.2/buildhere/signal/raise.os] Error 1 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.2-r9/work/glibc-2.3.2/signal' make[1]: *** [signal/subdir_lib] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.2-r9/work/glibc-2.3.2' make: *** [all] Error 2 !!!
