This seems related to glibc 2.25.90 which has removed the `struct sigaltstack` type. According to `sigaltstack(2)` the type annotation to use is `stack_t`.

I have a patch to solve the type error, but then we encounter a linking error due to function inlining, reported in bug #632014

The inlining issue has been fixed in gcl-2.6.12 ebuild by adding 

  append-cflags $(test-flags-CC -fgnu89-inline)

during the configure phase.

With both the stack_t patch and the CC flags patch, we then encounter the same issue as gcl-2.6.12 described in bug #622120.
