Report to http://bugs.gentoo.org/
zsh: killed     hwinfo

hrm, i guess this is related to 
 * QA Notice: Package triggers severe warnings which indicate that it
 *            may exhibit random runtime failures.
 * hwinfo.c:1316:27: warning: array subscript is above array bounds [-Warray-bounds]
Comment 2 Jan Matějka (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-08-03 01:14:02 UTC
hum. It suddenly started working.

Only change I can think of was that I added -ggdb and nostrip but some other sw upgrades might have happened too.

Please reopen if you can still reproduce on 21.71
