After ./bootstrap-prefix.sh, the problem always happened on Ubuntu 18.04.3LTS.

Thank you.  I will try to reproduce this bug.  In the mean while, I suspect the newest binutils-2.34 caused this.  Could you please test with older versions of binutils?

Hint: `man portage` and look for package.mask.

Thank you for your reply. I try to change the version to 2.33 and 2.32, but it doesn't work. After disablling 'gold' USE of binutils, I realize that it work!

Something similar happened to gcc.

Hi, could you please try again?  Recently we have fixed a bug in binutils which might have caused this bug.

Is the error the same as before?

I tried the bootstrap on Ubuntu 18.04, and the error is like https://bugs.gentoo.org/708974

I finished bootstrap x86_64-rap-linux-ubuntu18.04 yesterday, and x86_64-pc-linux-ubuntu18.04 likely finishes today, haven't observed this problem.
