I often get random errors, like this one, while building packages: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -c -O2 -pipe -march=k8 -fno-strict-aliasing -ansi -pedantic -Wno-return-type -w -I../../../../exports/include/X11 -I../../../../extras/Mesa/src/mesa/glapi -I../../../../extras/Mesa/src/mesa/math -I../../../../extras/Mesa/src/mesa/shader -I../../../../extras/Mesa/src/mesa/main -I../../../../extras/Mesa/src/mesa -I../../../../lib/GL/dri -I../../../../extras/Mesa/include -I../../../../lib/GL/include -I../../../.. -I../../../../exports/include -Dlinux -D__amd64__ -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199309L -D_POSIX_SOURCE -D_XOPEN_SOURCE -D_BSD_SOURCE -D_SVID_SOURCE -D_GNU_SOURCE -DFUNCPROTO=15 -DNARROWPROTO -DXTHREADS -D_REENTRANT -DXUSE_MTSAFE_API -DMALLOC_0_RETURNS_NULL -DGLXEXT -DXF86DRI -DGLX_DIRECT_RENDERING -DGLX_USE_DLOPEN -DGLX_USE_MESA -D__GLX_ALIGN64 -fPIC get.c get.c: In function `_mesa_GetFloatv': get.c:4797: internal compiler error: in sbitmap_difference, at sbitmap.c:279 Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source if appropriate. See <URL:http://bugs.gentoo.org/> for instructions. The bug is not reproducible, so it is likely a hardware or OS problem. make[6]: *** [get.o] Error 1 make[6]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r5/work/xc/lib/GL/mesa/main' make[5]: *** [all] Error 2 make[5]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r5/work/xc/lib/GL/mesa' make[4]: *** [all] Error 2 make[4]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r5/work/xc/lib/GL' make[3]: *** [all] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r5/work/xc/lib' make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r5/work/xc' make[1]: *** [World] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r5/work/xc' make: *** [World] Error 2 !!!

Then if i run it again, it'll build. Sometimes i have to try three times, but that's as many as i've tested.
