Got the same error at gcc-12.3.1_p20230526 if +d USE flag. clang profile.

yeah, gdc takes a bit of a bootstrap path (same as gnat).  I bootstrapped both by building gnat-gpl[d,ada] and then using that to build gcc[d,ada].

I'm surprised that you also ran into this, though, rather than getting an error in dependency resolution.  Do you have a sys-devel/gcc[d] installed?  If so, does the selected GCC have a GDC?  Post gcc-config -c, gcc-config -l.  Which versions of GCC and with which flags do you have installed?
