Hi, while doing an emerge -e world sandbox fails to compile (fails to configure). It also fails outside of the -e world ;) >>> Emerging (1 of 1) sys-apps/sandbox-1.2.18.1 to / * sandbox-1.2.18.1.tar.bz2 RMD160 ;-) ... [ ok ] * sandbox-1.2.18.1.tar.bz2 SHA1 ;-) ...

A complete build log is located at '/mnt/portvar/var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/sandbox-1.2.18.1/temp/build.log'. the error is of course bogus - hundreds of successfully compiled packages are a pretty good hint, that gcc has no problem to create executables.

looks like you didn't enable IA32 emulation in your kernel config, which you absolutely should. See http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-amd64-faq.xml#kernel *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 133209 ***
I have that option set: CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y
