Hello,

you're receiving this canned bug because the package in summary uses the flag -Werror during build, which transforms warnings in errors, and is prone to break software when new GCC releases are added to Gentoo.

Please make sure your package does not use -Werror during build, so that it can be more future-proof for the new GCC releases.

Thanks,
Diego

dev-util/crash-5.1.7 builds successfully against GCC 4.6; removing blocker. Some -Werror usage remains though.

This appears to have been solved with newer versions.
