same problem here. this is probably related to bug #55241. If you don't need mencoder yo can emerge mplayer with USE="-encode" emerge mplayer Maybe this helps debuging: header 2.6.5-r1 and mplayer 1.0_pre5 works header 2.6.7-r1 and mplayer 1.0_pre4 works header 2.6.7-r2 and mplayer 1.0_pre5 fails and according to #55241 (haven't tried myself): header 2.6.7-r2 and mplayer 1.0_pre4 fails
2.6.7-r1 fixed most of the problems I had with the 2.6.7 headers, for example mplayer. What patches were run against 2.6.7-r1 and are left out in 2.6.7-r2?
I get this error with the 2.6.6 headers
2.6.7-r3 headers fixes this one.
Please update to -r3 headers, it has been confirmed to fix this issue.
