The ebuilds of these applications sets the --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu flag, which makes configure think that it should create Makefiles for cross compiling for another platform, resulting in the strangely named binaries.

Actual Results: The installed binaries have a arch prefix, the startup scripts doesn't work anymore, if you don't know about the prefix it looks like the app isn't installed at all Expected Results: Binries should be installed without the prefix
you have an outdated gcc-config update it, re-run gcc-config, then remove 'CTARGET' from your env *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 74460 ***
