Created attachment 493642 [details] stage2.log System is x86_64, Debian GNU/Linux 6.0. Bug can be solved by switching to this toolchain-funcs.eclass: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/plain/eclass/toolchain-funcs.eclass?id=a85a7c74c7611e85748b0b6. Installation then fails citing the necessity of >=bash-4.2.
We will need to require >=bash-4.2 to be installed at stage1.
