[Description Toralf Förster 2014-06-19 16:12:59 UTC]

Just upgraded to 4.8.3 from 4.7.3-r1 at a x86 system and now I get :

...
checking for style of include used by make... GNU
checking for i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc... i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
checking whether the C compiler works... no
configure: error: in `/var/tmp/portage/app-arch/xz-utils-5.0.5-r1/work/xz-5.0.5-.default':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details

:-(

Looks like you have a typo in your CFLAGS.  Past experience tells me it was a vim mistake pressing 'i' for insert mode too many times =)

configure:5088: i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -O2 -march=native -pipei -fstack-protector  -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed conftest.c  >&5
i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-pipei'
