I started a chroot installation for the single purpose of fixing my AMD64 compilation toolchain, because migration from 2004.3 to 2005.0 broke my mulilib support. I used teh installation instructions, but instead of booting from the CD I strated from the stage unpack (Step 5. Installing the Gentoo Installation Files). unpacked the 2005.0 tarball in the chroot folder, and then the portage snapshot. proceeded to chrooting, ran emerge -sync and then emerge -uD system. Package updating hit the wall emergeing glibc. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: glibc compilation failed. Expected Results: glibc should compile. x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fexecve.c -c -std=gnu99 -O2 -Wall -Winline -Wstrict-prototypes -Wwrite-strings -fPIC -march=k8 -pipe
