I used glibc-2.3.4.20041102 on amd64 for a while without having any problems. Today I played with cedega. This app told me not to have pthread support. That is true, because my glibc (and the whole sstem) was built with nptl and nptlonly. I re-emerged glibc with nptl and -nptlonly. (I do not use multilib, because I have a full chroot jail for 32 bit apps. Therefor this flag is disabled per default). After the emerge process I recognized that I was not able to compile any apps anymore. gcc stopped with telling me /lib/gcc sanity check failure. I wrote the legend "Hello world" app and tried to compile it with gcc -o test test.c It failed telling me not to find stdio.h I checked it and it was not in /usr/include nor in /usr/include/bits I called qpkg -l glibc and it showed me that the stdio.h should be there and also in /usr/include/gentoo-multilib/default and /usr/include/gentoo-multilib/default/bits. Two things: 1.) Why gentoo-multilib, if multilib was not given in /etc/make.conf nor bash 2.) nptl with multilib set and without nptlonly is working fine here. So this might be the only workaround at the moment. It seems to me something in the ebuild is broken and mixing up the given use flags. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. USE="nptl -nptlonly -multilib" emerge glibc 2. 3.
