emerge --info

There is a known bug in webkit-gtk that breaks browers like midori, luakit, surf, etc on PowerPC. In Debian and Ubuntu I can install the .deb file but when I try to launch it crashes. In Gentoo when it crashed on compile. I am attaching my emerge --info and build.log files. You can see the Debian bug report and links to the patched files here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=771841

webkit-2.4.9 just got released, maybe it is fixed there?

This is the debian patch the is supposed to fix crashes on PPC.

Could you please try to apply it and see if it fixes your issue ?

I have some doubts as you seem to hit a build issue rather than a runtime issue.
