commands called to show the error

I tried bitcoind 0.10.2 and 0.11.2. Both fail to run with -datadir=/home/bitcoin and segfault.

I added the gdb outout and the commands I call.
It can be seen that withiut the -datadir=/home/bitcoin the daemon runs find.

Please show emerge --info bitcoind 

Also, you need to recompile it with debugging symbols to get a useful backtrace:
