I tried to emerge qt independently and the error was the same. So this is more of a QT bug and not a Gnome Bug... should I sumbit a new bug, erase this one, or anything else?
tried to emerge qt-3.3.1 , same error.
Someone on the forums might be able to help you, but internal compile errors are generally local problems - bad ram, running out of ram, CPU getting too hot, or some bug in gcc/glibc.
closing per above comments
