Don't CC architecture teams, please.

1) Please attach the entire build log.
2) Please post your `emerge --info net-analyzer/rrdtool' output too.

This looks like incompatibility between rrdtool and ruby 1.9+ versions. I'm going to close this since rrdtool 1.4.8 (and several earlier versions) compile fine with ruby 1.9 and we no longer support ruby 1.8.
