Unfortunately, this failure cannot be worked around by adding "-std=gnu17" to CFLAGS because the ebuild "helpfully" calls strip-flags, which causes:

 * strip-flags: CFLAGS: changed '-pipe -march=core2 -O3 -std=gnu17 -ggdb' to '-pipe -march=core2 -O3 -ggdb'

It does work if you set CC='x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc-15 -std=gnu17' since strip-flags doesn't touch CC.
