Eh, seems like another fam issue. Try with MAKEOPTS="-j1" Related info: Bug 78814 http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-299454-highlight-fam.html
Hey it's getting a "bit" better :-) With MAKEOPTS="-j1" one of the messages has disapeared. Now I get: Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed Waiting for cpu_flush.o.lock to be removed
CFLAGS="" emerge -u avifile solved the issue
Not the same package giving the error but the error is the same, better having only one bug taking care of this. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 78814 ***
