Tried switching to python 2.7 but got the same error.

The line of the error in isolated-functions.sh is calling a function 
__eapi_has_nonfatal. That is defined in eapi.sh and checks if ${EAPI} != 
0, 1, 2 or 3, which effectively leave 4 or 5.

It seems that the glibc ebuild is EAPI 0 (from 
/var/db/pkg/sys-libs/glibc-2.19-r1/EAPI).

So I guess that the error means that it tried to run the 
glibc_compile_test and failed for the binary install, so emerge tried to 
raise a nonfatal error, but that wasn't supported by the EAPI and that 
caused the emerge to die.

I wonder if setting EAPI=5 in the ebuild file will help, of if that 
would just cause other problems... I might try that later when I have 
some time...

:B
