ref. bugs 133209 & 135688. configure finds first and uses crossdev gcc for the "* Building sandbox for ABI=x86..." portion. This runs before the ABI=amd64 side, so the emerge fails almost immediately. Renaming the crossdev gcc (/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.1.2/i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc) allows the emerge to succeed. Another workaround is: CC=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc emerge sandbox Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. gentoo on amd64 2. emerge crossdev, build a 32-bit toolchain 3. emerge sandbox Actual Results: build ~ # emerge -v sys-apps/sandbox These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

One other thing - this machine has never had eselect-compiler installed and I'm not doing cross-dev, and I'd like to work thru the bug and am willing to spend the time trying things and reporting back with logs and etc as necessary to do so (ref: Bug 133209 comment #48). build ~ # binutils-config -l [1] amd64-pc-linux-uclibc-2.17 * [2] i386-pc-linux-gnu-2.17 * [3] i586-pc-linux-gnu-2.17 * [4] i686-pc-linux-gnu-2.17 [5] i686-pc-linux-gnu-2.19 * [6] i686-pc-linux-uclibc-2.17 * [7] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-2.16.1 [8] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-2.17 * [9] x86_64-pc-linux-uclibc-2.17 *
Could you try building the ~amd64 sandbox and see if it has the same problem? I don't have a 686 toolchain installed here, but from reading the ebuilds it looks like 1.3 ebuilds should work better.
Hmm, I can't emerge anything with .lzma patches (including sys-apps/sandbox-1.3.2), and I'm guessing its because I need to be on a newer portage, but portage depends on sandbox. I'm caught in the middle trying to upgrade my profile from amd64-2007.0 to amd64-2008.0 What do you suggest? Emerge using a workaround, then see if I can build the newer ~amd64 version?
