  well, I ran prelink, found out that all daemons had to be restarted,
  and figured I'd undo and look at it later.   bad idea.

  /usr went full, and now prelink segfaults midway through the KDE
  library directory.  I'm mostly just removing whatever it segfaults
  on and hoping it will continue.  my real problem however is this:

[x200 /] # python2.2
python2.2: error while loading shared libraries: unexpected PLT reloc type 0x00

  which sort of hurts when running Gentoo.  I'm fetching a stage3
  tarball on another system and I'll remerge, hm, kdelibs parts of
  gnome and what have you not once I get this working again.

  one might want to note on the webpage that this _might_ hurt.
  badly.  and maybe python should be protected from optimizations like
  this under Gentoo?
