The problem is sandbox-related and is not specifically gcc. It happens for other packages as well since I updated to this version of portage. Once at the root prompt (under sandbox), if I hit ctrl-d then it will drop back to a prompt again, indicating it's in a loop.

slightly different on alpha (same version of portage). Instead of getting a bash prompt under sandbox, emerge just exits: $ sudo emerge gnumeric Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 2) gnome-extra/libgsf-1.10.0 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) libgsf-1.10.0.tar.bz2 >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking libgsf-1.10.0.tar.bz2 to /usr/local/tmp/portage/libgsf-1.10.0/work >>> Source unpacked. $
Running with FEATURES=-sandbox doesn't exhibit the problem, btw
Only happens on 64-bit machines. This is fixed for _rc10.
