net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.21.4 cannot compile when libstdc++ is provided by gcc-8, but it does work with gcc-7 Reproducible: Always This is more of a heads-up than a real bug because net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.21.4 is not yet in the tree, but I suspect upstream is trying to do something unsavory with respect to the c++ library, and gcc-8 is more strict about it than gcc-7 was.

Upstream has fixed (or deferred fixing) this in 2.21.5 by switching from c++17 to c++14
So this is now INVALID or OBSOLETE as we never had this version or as it's fixed upstream without our involvement, respectively?
Yes, upstream has a workaround in place. ps. This version would be worth adding to the gnome overlay since it is needed by epiphany.
we are trying to be busy getting at least gnome 3.26 into main tree, 9999 are essentially unmaintained best effort in gnome overlay; mostly historical baggage from merrier times when there was someone to care for them. Help welcome (gnome overlay push access is a possibility after some trust gaining).
oh, and webkit-gtk will probably be bumped in main tree to 2.22.0 once it comes out 3-5th September as the next stable series (and 2.20.x stops being fully security maintained)
