Probably default lib path should be set explicitly in binutils ebuild (but gcc is expected to have up to date path). Hard to say without seeing an error. > Not sure what the "right" fix is, but the cleanest workaround so far is a small patch: > @@ -247,6 +247,11 @@ parse_target() { > STAGE_DEFAULT=${STAGE_C_ONLY} > WITH_DEF_HEADERS="no";; > > + riscv*) > + BUSE+=" -default-gold"; This looks wrong.

You're right, riscv does need to have gold disabled (at least for now).
Closing as NEEDINFO as we need to have at least some logs to evaluate the change.
