GCC-5.1 may be a factor (unverified) and any upgrade-to-fix solutions will be acceptable because the box in question is a VM expressly for isolating/hacking on 5.1 issues, ( to smoke out anything that needs to be stabilized before GCC 5.1 )

A second attempt at building it the same way succeeded with the same configuration, so methinks its some sort of timing/race condition problem.

Otherwise looks unrelated to GCC.

Mass closing of bugs reported against old versions of dev-lang/python.  If the problem still occurs with the current versions (i.e. newest in each visible slot), feel free to reopen.
