emerge of xen-tols-3.4.1 fails. Adding CFLAGS += -nopie to /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-tools-3.4.1/work/xen-3.4.1/tools/Rules.mk seems to solve the problem.

Same happens here.

Switching to i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.3.4-hardenednopie seems to fix the issue although this is more a workaround than a solution.
Same problem here, and workaround from #6 gets it to build. Interestingly amd64 builds fine.
This problem keeps occurring even with xen-tools-3.4.2
When I emerge I get these errors, are these what you were seeing? blktapctrl.c: In function 'open_ctrl_socket': blktapctrl.c:765: error: implicit declaration of function 'mkdir' blktapctrl.c:767: error: implicit declaration of function 'mkfifo'

Created attachment 278743 [details] xen-3-4-2 build log after applying changes to Rules.mk (In reply to comment #8) > This problem keeps occurring even with xen-tools-3.4.2 I confirm, problem exists with xen-tools-3.4.2 on x86 hardened (see attachment 278741 [details] for buildlog) I used solution given here, only to get another error, sililar to Matthew's (see attachment to this post) (In reply to comment #9) > When I emerge I get these errors, are these what you were seeing? > > blktapctrl.c: In function 'open_ctrl_socket': > blktapctrl.c:765: error: implicit declaration of function 'mkdir' > blktapctrl.c:767: error: implicit declaration of function 'mkfifo' Then, I used solution given here https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=369615 (they use x64, but it worked for me on x86) After applying both solutions, I managed to build xen-tools.
