tinderbox_musl has reproduced this issue with version 2.6_alpha3-r6 - Updating summary.

I had this same issue,  amd64, followed steps for system-wide Clang and bootstrapped Clang toolchain.

I downloaded the MOC 2.6-alpha3 from daper.
Setting CC/CFLAGS/etc, I get: "I don't know how to compiler pthreads ..." during configure

Here is the config.log where -pthread is used with clang:
conftest.c:89:51 error: parameter 'a' set but not used [-Werror,-Wunused-but-set-parameter]
89 |  static void routine(void *a) { a = 0; }

In my make.conf, I temporarily appended to my WARNING_FLAGS (which goes into my COMMON_FLAGS then CFLAGS/etc):

WARNING_FLAGS="-Wnoerror=unused-bit-set-parameter"

I was then able to emerge media-sound/moc without any other issues.

*oops, that is -Wnoerror=unused-but-set-parameter
Comment 6 Chase 2024-03-07 05:21:34 UTC
I tried to make a patch for the configure file, but the changes weren't sticking.
I've used patches for other packages.

It fixed it (in my downloaded source dir) to change the line in configure:
static void routine(void *a) { a = 0; }
to:
static void routing(void *a) { if (a) return; }

The configure script sets Werror, and, I don't know if it's new, clang warns about the unused parameter. This results in the pthread tests all failing which makes configure fail.
