Too old sys-devel/gcc and/or sys-devel/binutils for your CPU, see for example http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-961210-start-0.html

As in, stop using -march=native which isn't safe for you, or upgrade sys-devel/gcc

Was getting this same vfmadd312sd error when compiling cmake (had enabled the -mfma CFLAG). According to the wikipedia article on the FMA instruction set, you have to use gcc >= 4.7 for FMA support. I installed gcc-4.7.3 and was able to get past this error.

This kinda has me confused on why gcc < 4.7 even accepts the -mfma flag if it's not supported.
Comment 5 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-08-24 05:09:24 UTC
It's not.  4.6 has -mfma4 but -mfma was added in 4.7.  Not sure why it's not giving an error for 4.6.

I would close this as CANTFIX and tell people to use a later version.  4.7 will go stable soon.
Comment 6 Anthony Basile gentoo-dev 2014-01-26 21:10:35 UTC
Please use gcc >= 4.7
