Did an "emerge -uD world" today and glibc-2.3.5-r2 failed with these lines: uhc.c:459: internal compiler error: in tree_low_cst, at tree.c:3318 Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source if appropriate.

Well, this is my first bugreport, so sorry if I did something wrong ... it was just this line - "please submit a full bug report" that made me do it :)
Can you try merging glibc again and see if the error is reproduced?
Just tried it - and no, the bug is not reproducible and glibc merged with no problems.
It sounds like some hardware problem then...
