There are a few changes in glibc-2.10 that might make your software fail to build with it, please refer to my blog post [1] if you're not sure what the problem is.

And no I don't usually provide emerge --info with these bugs because they are caused by glibc-2.10!

Thanks, Diego

Patch looks not perfect to me, why the static_cast? O_o

I agree with diego, the static_cast isn't necessary.
If rindex (pCom1->utf8_str (), '.') returns a real const char *, we've just to assign the returned value into a const char *, and that all.

(diego correct me if wrong of course)
