cpio cannot be built when -Werror=format-security is in CFLAGS. The error occurs only once and is easy to fix.

1. echo 'CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -Wformat -Werror=format-security"' >> /etc/portage/make.conf
2. emerge -1 app-arch/cpio
3.
Actual Results:  
emake failed

Expected Results:  
copio updated on system

Please provide the complete build log and the output of emerge --info.

this file is actually part of gnulib, not cpio.  gnulib already fixed it long ago:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/commit/?h=bfacc22b1cd7713444e1403a66476d55284d260f

and cpio-2.12 includes the updated file.
