Call stack:
 ebuild.sh line 1539: Called dyn_compile
 ebuild.sh line 939: Called src_compile
 (on this line they al call sothing diffrent vixe-cron called
ssmtp-2.61r5.ebuild line 39: called econf (lots of options)
 matalog  called libpcre-6.6.ebuild line 41: Called econf --enable-utf8 and syslogd did somthing difrent as well but i asume that line is irelivent)

We can't guess, sorry. Post the relevant lines of the emerge output.

 this is what metalog did:
 ebuild.sh line 1539: Called dyn_compile
 ebuild.sh line 939: Called src_compile
 libpcre-6.6.ebuild line 41: Called econf --enable-utf8 and
 ebuild.sh, line 541: Called die
i belive th errror is in the last line ebuild.sh line 541:called die
as this line and the first 2 lines are the same in all of these error messeges and they all had difrent 3rd lines but as it is exactly the same error i would assume that means the 3rd line is erelivant as i said before i am up to the Installing Necessary System Tools in the instalation handbook this should help you figure out my emerge info and so 4th

Post the relevant console output from emerge <somepackage>; the above doesn't say anything useful. We need to see the real errors.

do you mean all of the output becouse this was the bit it said to post it had errror 
Call stack:
 ebuild.sh line 1539: Called dyn_compile
 ebuild.sh line 939: Called src_compile
 libpcre-6.6.ebuild line 41: Called econf --enable-utf8 and
 ebuild.sh, line 541: Called die
or smilar but that is console output if you whant me to post the whole output it might take somme 24hours as ihave to somehow figure out how to get the bits that are already off screen becouse as i said before i am half way throught the instalation

Reopen once you've posted something useful as the message told you.
