If it's worth anything, the appropriate line was [ebuild NS ] sys-devel/gcc-4.1.1 I blocked that version, and an older 3.6.4-r*** was installed successfully. I then unblocked it, and got approximately the same error: ---- start "emerge gcc" transformation: 0.012001, building DFA: 9.852617 DFA minimization: 0.584036, making insn equivalence: 0.000000 all automaton generation: 10.628665, output: 0.092006 /bin/sh /var/tmp/portage/gcc-4.1.1/work/gcc-4.1.1/gcc/../move-if-change tmp-attrtab.c insn-attrtab.c insn-attrtab.c is unchanged echo timestamp > s-attrtab stage1/xgcc -Bstage1/ -B/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ -march=athlon64 -pipe -O2 -fprofile-generate -DIN_GCC -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -pedantic -Wno-long-long -Wno-variadic-macros -Wold-style-definition -Wmissing-format-attribute -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I/var/tmp/portage/gcc-4.1.1/work/gcc-4.1.1/gcc -I/var/tmp/portage/gcc-4.1.1/work/gcc-4.1.1/gcc/. -I/var/tmp/portage/gcc-4.1.1/work/gcc-4.1.1/gcc/../include -I/var/tmp/portage/gcc-4.1.1/work/gcc-4.1.1/gcc/../libcpp/include -c insn-attrtab.c \ -o insn-attrtab.o sandbox: Caught signal 1 in pid 31217 Hangup xcserv portage # make: *** [profiledbootstrap] Hangup make[2]: *** [insn-attrtab.o] Hangup make[1]: *** [stageprofile_build] Hangup ----stop "emerge gcc" Once again killing everything and the sshd session.

my guess is you ran out of ram and the kernel killed it anything interesting in `dmesg` ? how much RAM+swap do you have ?
total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 446988 441024 5964 0 388 190552 Turns out it was indeed an out of memory problem. There is only 512 Mb ram, but I at least thought I had enabled swap. Turns out, that 512Mb partition contained some files originating from when I installed it at the beginning. The way it seems to have been killing I think the thing could do with a reboot soon. I think I have a couple spare gigabytes lying around I can install tomorrow too. Thanks for pointing it out! M
