I sometimes find this error coming from multi-thread compilation. I fix it by
prepending the emerge command with MAKEOPTS="-j1". You could try that.

I always try -j1 when anything fails to avoid troubling the list, however it didnt help in this case. Did you suspect that thread.h is generated by the package build process, or is there some other reason why parallel build could cause this problem? AFAIK header files are not generated. I would have guessed its a path problem or missing dependency.
