I don't understand this. It fails on one of my three machines, and works fine on the other two (I try to keep them configured similarly, but they do have hardware differences).

Please attach the build.log file of the failed emerge to this bug.
Also, please try removing -mfpmath=sse from your CFLAGS and see if that solves the problem...

(In reply to comment #1) > Please attach the build.log file of the failed emerge to this bug. Done. (In reply to comment #2) Also, please try removing -mfpmath=sse from your CFLAGS and see if that solves the problem... No, it didn't (from what I can see /usr/portage/eclass/vmware-mod.eclass filters that anyway, but I did remove it manually, and got the same result).
