I decided to do an emerge -e world to recompile all my programs and libs with the latest version of gcc and glibc in the ppc tree (not the ~ppc). It was long overdue. The process stoped at the building of xine-lib-1_rc4-r1 with an interesting error I will put in attachment. xine-lib is a dependency of kde so I cannot really do without it.

Created attachment 35716 [details] make output before failure of the build
I see that xine-lib-1_rc5-r2, which is in ~ppc, has a useflag -altivec and that it actually compile. Considering that this version compile while xine-lib-1_rc4-r1 which is in ppc doesn't, shouldn't xine-lib-1_rc5-r2 be bumped in ppc?

Can you guys try the rc_5 and report back if that doesn't work. It should work just fine since I included it in the GRP set for 2004.2
I am now using rc5-r3 without problem and as I reported before I was using rc5-r2 without problem by enabling ~ppc for that build. The only problem was rc4 which was the version present in ppc.
