Created attachment 32263 [details] log with compile error
thanks for the bug report, but this version of glibc is experimental and masked. it's a moving target that will probably be somewhat buggy... i'm also removing it very soon for a new snapshot that will actually work on ppc64 that might not have this problem you're having. use 20040420.
Um... Sorry but I have the same error with earlier version. What to do? buildhere/sys/syscall.h:1, from ../sysdeps/unix/sysdep.h:21, from ../sysdeps/unix/i386/sysdep.h:19, from ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/sysdep.h:24, from <stdin>:1: /var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.3_pre20040420/work/glibc-2.3.2/buildhere/sys/syscall.h:1:10: #include nested too deeply mv /var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.3_pre20040420/work/glibc-2.3.2/buildhere/param.h.dep-t /var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.3_pre20040420/work/glibc-2.3.2/buildhere/param.h.dep make[2]: *** [/var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.3_pre20040420/work/glibc-2.3.2/buildhere/tcb-offsets.h] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.3_pre20040420/work/glibc-2.3.2/signal' make[1]: *** [signal/subdir_lib] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/glibc-2.3.3_pre20040420/work/glibc-2.3.2' make: *** [all] Error 2 !!!

I forgot to mention that partition where I am building gentoo is formatted as reiserfs4.
If you're using reiserfs4, this could be the source of any possible problems that may occur. All the reports I've seen (including some from several credible gentoo devs) equate using reiserfs4 to hitting one of those looney tunes missiles with a hammer -- it's bound to go very bad very quickly. You might want to give some thought to switching back to a slightly more sane filesystem until reiserfs4 is proven to be more stable.
I have found some info according this error http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=173831 Some patch there... Haven't used it yet.
selecter, did you try that patch now? I tried to reproduce this bug on two different boxes but couldn't reproduce it. Is this still an issue?
No, sorry I didn't. That patch is for fixing reiser4 with notail and glibc issue. http://mjt.nysv.org/reiser/tail.c.diff
dont use resier4
