I've been trying to update for the past two weeks without success.... kdebase keeps failing on me. The offending item seems to be this: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/../../../Scrt1.o(.text+0x28): unresolvable relocation against symbol `main' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [kblankscrn.kss] Error 1 What is Scrt1.o? Here's the context for the error I'm getting: emerge -u world ....

seems like a borked gcc/glibc issue to me...reassigning (to hopefully the right people).
Would upgrading to gcc 3.4 help (or would it break more things)??? Should I re-emerge gcc 3.3??? Any hints???
try latest stable gcc/glibc combo
I got around the issue which appeared to stem from the hardened USE flag. I removed the USE flag (acutally I negated it in /etc/make.conf) and the issue resolved itself.
