The important part is *above*, not below the above snippet. Post it or just attach the complete log.

The problem turned out to be hardware related.  My CPU fan had died and my system was over heating.  It was causing random errors to happen everywhere and would not let me compile anything.  I have replaced the fan and now the system works fine again.  media-libs/freetype-2.3.5-r2 compiles now.
