Comes up with a bunch of undefined symbols at the linking stage, so I presume it's having a fit over that LD option.

What's interesting is that it only happens when I'm emerging it as part of amarok, not on it's own. I honestly can't explain that.
Reopen.
Okay, i've messed about somewhat and it's not a bug with the LDFLAGS because I've commented them out in make.conf and remerged. No idea what's causing it then
Did you remove your portage tmpdir before retrying with your different LD flags? You probably had some cached object files.
