media-gfx/argyllcms-2.0.0 fails to build a 32bit userland library (the package) when running under an 64bit kernel.

Thanks for the report, let's see... It's strange that you got 1.9.2 in, as the Jam files did not change for this step (Jambase file, line 979): # Make things work on 64 bit Linux # Because HOSTTYPE is not normally exported, check the uname() result if ! $(HOSTTYPE) { HOSTTYPE = $(JAMUNAME[1]) ; } if $(HOSTTYPE) = x86_64 || $(HOSTTYPE) = x86_64-linux || $(HOSTTYPE) = amd64 { ECHO "We're on a 64 bit host" ; HOST64 = true ; CFLAGS += -m64 ; C++FLAGS += -m64 ; } Or did you have a 32bit kernel before? As it's apparently using uname output Anyway from looking at the code (jam is not yummy I can tell you), setting HOSTTYPE on the jam line in the ebuild should do the trick: HOSTTYPE=${CHOST/-*} jam ...
Marking test request until confirmation fix from comment 1 helps
