Does removing the v4l useflag remedy the issue?
(In reply to comment #1) > Does removing the v4l useflag remedy the issue? > Yes its working to compile with out v4l. (have vlc running with out use flag v4l)
It looks like some of the make log is missing from the first error. Can you attach the entire log of the emerge?
Created attachment 93882 [details] vlc-0.8.4a/config.log now i'm really confuesd for vlc wont compile with out use flag v4l. ill get the same error as #2
It's actually starting to look like that gcc might be segfaulting, which, could be hardware related, or software related. Look into dmesg and see if you see anything in there that might point to a hardware issue.
Randomly failing compile -> not an ebuild bug. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 20600 ***
