have you tried to emerge -uD world --newuse Since you added nis to your use flags, --newuse will rebuild all packages that has that in it's use flags.. gblic might need to rebuild yes.
of course, I tried. the only package that need to rebuild was sys-libs/pam-0.78-r2
Try to reemerge glibc, since it searches in -lnls and -lc.
recompiled glibc 2.3.5 , with no effect at all.
--enable-yp is all ways included in the ./configure, shouldn't it depend on the nis use flag? After comenting it on /usr/portage/eclass/php-sapi.eclass it worked fine. mod_php compiled with gcc i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.2.3, but when I need i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-20050130 for pdftk it failed to compile on the yp check.
Not reproducible in the new overlay (link: http://svn.gnqs.org/projects/gentoo-php-overlay/ ), there it works. --enable-yp is no longer added to the ebuild, YP/NIS support will be provided through a PECL package (not so soon).
Closing.
