My reading of the Makefile suggests that the logic to turn off this warning in $LOC_CC_OPTS isn't working properly, perhaps because it's testing for GCC by testing whether $CC exactly equals "gcc", and when I used sed in post_src_prepare() in /etc/portage/env to add -Wno-alloca-larger-than to the "non-GCC" case, the build succeeded.

There seems to be an upstream bug for compilation with GCC-10 (https://github.com/java-native-access/jna/issues/1244). Upstream already released a patch (https://github.com/java-native-access/jna/pull/1245).

"-Werror" was solved with bug #888813. Closing. If the problem persists, please re-open.
