This looks to me like your glibc is screwed up. Can you emerge any C apps at all?
eek. I can emerge gaim, just did it twice, the older version and the newer version with the flag 'gnutls', which enables msn. I thought I needed gaim-encryption for that. So one of my problems is then solved. question remains, is gaim c prgram?
Yes gaim is written in C. If you still have problems, I might suggest re-emerging glibc.
It was a problem with glibc, but I don't know which exactly. I have done: emerge -P glibc (prune previous versions) and recompiled glibc with ntplonly on. Which I read in some other thread solved problems like I had.
