I think I may have the same problem. I'm attaching my log file

Comment 5 hololeap 2018-01-04 18:53:54 UTC 
The workaround I am using is to add "-fpermissive" to the C(XX)FLAGS by creating the following two files.

/etc/portage/package.env/fpermissive 
    =x11-libs/wxGTK-2.8.12.1-r2 fpermissive

/etc/portage/env/fpermissive
    CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -fpermissive"
    CXXFLAGS="$CXXFLAGS -fpermissive"
Comment 6 Mart Raudsepp gentoo-dev 2018-01-06 13:54:38 UTC 
I wasn't planning on fixing 2.8 for gcc7 stuff, as the effort is better spent on removing 2.8 from tree. Why do you need this old version still? Codeblocks?
Comment 7 hololeap 2018-01-18 03:57:52 UTC 
It's gnuradio that's pulling in this dependency:

  x11-libs/wxGTK-2.8.12.1-r2 pulled in by:
    dev-python/wxpython-2.8.12.1-r2 requires >=x11-libs/wxGTK-2.8.12.1:2.8[opengl,tiff,X]

  dev-python/wxpython-2.8.12.1-r2 pulled in by:
    net-wireless/gnuradio-9999 requires dev-python/wxpython:2.8[python_targets_python2_7(-),-python_single_target_jython2_7(-),-python_single_target_pypy(-),-python_single_target_pypy3(-),-python_single_target_python3_4(-),-python_single_target_python3_5(-),-python_single_target_python3_6(-),python_single_target_python2_7(+)]
Comment 8 Beetle B. 2018-01-20 18:36:40 UTC 
I need 2.8 for amule-2.3.2. See this related bug:

Comment 9 Mart Raudsepp gentoo-dev 2018-07-16 00:59:52 UTC 
wxGTK:2.8 is p.masked for removal (bug 661284), thus this bug is now obsolete as far as I can see.
amule got a maintainer and should hopefully have wxGTK:3.0 fixed by now. gnuradio should work fine with 3.0 now too.
