I was at the final stage of the prefix portage bootstrapping guide: 'emerge -e system', I had copied my USE flags from a previous installation, they included 'gdbm' which caused perl to draw gdbm into the dependencies. the emerge process failed on gdbm, I removed gdbm from my USE flags and the 'emerge -e system' worked to completion (now with no gdbm deps pulled in by perl).

Created attachment 154491 [details] build log from 'emerge gdbm'
(FYI: Builds/installs fine on x86-linux here.)
got perl in my head, it's just gdbm itself which is messed up.
(In reply to comment #2) > (FYI: Builds/installs fine on x86-linux here.) > So, is this an issue on darwin only?
yes, darwin only.
Ahhhh, this is related to bug #165263. In -r3 this patch was disabled, because of what's noted on that bug, which results in this bug. In -r4 it was reenabled, because the build patch actually needs it. I'll try to solve that...
fix0rzed... sorry for the delay, shame on me.
