I am trying to re-bootstrap Gentoo Prefix on a machine I recently upgraded to OS X 10.10.2. The process fails during the merge of sys-apps/coreutils-8.23-r00.1 with the following error messages:

make[2]: Entering directory '/Users/vwegert/Library/Gentoo/var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/coreutils-8.23-r00.1/work/coreutils-8.23'

I believe this has been fixed, as the problem doesn't occur today.
