i have found the problem: "-Wl,--as-needed"

using this in the LDFLAGS generate the apache error.
recompiling Apache2 without "-Wl,--as-needed" LDFLAGS resolf the problem.

i think will be usefull to correct the Apache2 ebuild to strip this type of LDFLAGS.

[Comment 2 Paul Querna 2005-04-06 09:38:28 UTC]

This is not a supported setting.  Do not set this globally. Only do it for packages that have a --enable-as-needed type configure flag.

On advice from #gentoo-dev on IRC, marking this as Invalid.
