Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge world....

Actual Results:  
I don't know if it reproducable on any installation. Here it crashes all the time. Have been messing around with the USE switches of SSH, and have recompiled the kernel several times because there were problems with NFS

Expected Results:  
Upgraded system

if `cp` is segfaulting, it's hardly baselayout's fault

verify there's nothing in `dmesg` and your hardware is sane

Well, see above.
