The patch proposed here: "http://www.digipedia.pl/usenet/thread/18494/12508/" works. At least the net-wireless/wimax seems to compile when this patch is applied to wpa_supplicant. It seems the libeap gets compiled without the random_get_bytes() function (defined in src/crypto/random.c) which is used on several places there. The actual wpa_supplicant gets the function directly by linking the src/crypto/random.o, but the library is normally not linked with this object, so it needs to be added together with src/utils/eloop.c (resp. eloop.o), which defines some functions that are used in random.c.

Patch for net-wireless/wpa_supplicant fixing this bug. Includes src/crypto/random.o and src/utils/eloop.o to libeap.so.
This patch to net-wireless/wpa_supplicant fixes the problem described above, please push it upstream to portage. Thanks.
I also confirm: wimax fails for me the same way. attached wpa_supplicant patch solves the problem. Please include patch in portage or push upstreams.

Yes, works on my setup as well, I can now compile wpa_supplicant and wimax. I still haven't make it work though (Toshiba Portage R731 with built-in WiMax). Created attachment 334510 [details, diff]
