It was a paludis bug, of course paludis --info came in handy (are you trying to jest? ;p) 2. You found it useful because you knew the syntax, and where to look for what -- it is relevant to you. Not to everyone else 3. Also, last comment on the bug: "The emerge --info and paludis --info I reported above are from the wrong machine. I'll update the results on Monday when I get back to the correct machine. It is a Xeon W5580 cpu which should be compiling as x86_64. I believe the bug is real. Sorry for the confusion."
