OK so part1 -- setting ABI_X86="32 64" in /etc/portage/make.conf really isn't a good idea.  This is me speaking with my multilib team hat on.

Now back to the bug -- could you confirm what version of dev-libs/nspr is installed and what flags it was built with?

The bug still present in dev-libs/nss-3.17.2 appeared in portage tree.

I still can't reproduce this.  Shot in the dark, do you happen to have an i686 crossdev installed?

CC'ing multilib team, maybe a second set of eyes on this can find a clue as to what's going wrong here.

If you feel I have closed your bug and it is still a current issue, please reopen and update it completely. We will not work bugs that have no ebuild in tree any longer or can not be reproduced with a current system.
