Could you please post your `emerge --info`?
Comment 2 GCovato 2004-08-23 05:23:32 UTC 
The bug exists only compiling the pkgconfig package with the -march=athlon-xp option.

Compiling with -march=i686 it works.

Comment 6 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-28 08:18:31 UTC 
sorry we can't do much with this. Works fine here. Illegal instruction usually points at some hw problem or maybe a flaky gcc.

Do you actually have an amd XP, your uname isn't very clear on that. Maybe you should reset your CFLAGS.
