[gentoo-user] emerge uclibc fails after upgrade of linux-headers

Hi there

I am trying to build a minimal system for my 128MB USB stick, based on uclibc.
I’m in the process of rebuilding system after upgrading gcc from 4.1 to 4.3.

During the upgrade, linux-headers was updated from 2.6.23-r3 to 2.6.30-r1.
After such an update, the c library needs to be rebuilt against the new
headers, so much I could find out myself. However, it fails here, and I can’t
find anything helpful for the case of using uclibc.

It brings the same errors as many other packages:

make[3]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/uclibc-0.9.28.3-r8/work/uClibc-0.9.28.3/libc/misc/syslog'

and loads more of the same kind.

What is the correct way to handle this? At the moment I’m circumventing that
problem my manually masking >linux-headers-2.6.23-r3.
