Yesterday servers was upgraded to sys-libs/glibc-2.8_p20080602-r1.
After that I've rebuild everything (just for the case) using:

    emerge linux-headers glibc binutils gcc-config gcc &&
    emerge -1 libtool &&
    emerge -b glibc binutils gcc portage &&
    emerge -bke system &&
    emerge -ke world

The `gcc-config -l` output is same on all servers:

 [1] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.6 *
 [2] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.6-hardenednopie
 [3] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.6-hardenednopiessp
 [4] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.6-hardenednossp
 [5] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.6-vanilla

Here is `emerge --info`:
 server with    this issue: http://powerman.name/tmp/emerge-info1
 server without this issue: http://powerman.name/tmp/emerge-info2

/proc/config.gz on both servers are same (except compile date):
    http://powerman.name/tmp/config1

As far as I able to check - server configurations are *same*.
