Could you retry with the current HEAD?
As a workaround, emerge with gcc-4.4 or portage-2.2_rc81. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 337020 ***
I retried building it today, and it looks like upstream has not fixed the overflow problem yet. Oh well, my next move will be to upgrade portage, and sweep this under the carpet :)
