Hi,
I stumbled into the next problem.
I do have a decent kernel compile knowledge but that seems to be gentoo
specific.
I have a old i686 machine where I installed gentoo on. Now when I did
the kernel the first time, it worked well. everything fine exept some
minor stuff (see below).

But now, when I try to compile the kernel, I get the following error:

I even try to compile with exactly the same config that compiled some
days before but got the same error.
The installed kernel sources and genkernel are:

As the error is completely without a meaning for me, maybe others have
an Idea.

I think you may have snipped too early. Looks like the relevant error
has happened somewhere above.

Well, that was the most relevant part. But for the completeness, I'll
put the full genkernel.log in the attachment. (It is not that big.)

Did you use a config file for 4.9.76 to build for kernel 3.4.52?
If so, this might not be a good idea. CONFIG options may vary quit a
bit between different kernel releases, which could mean trouble.
Using an older config to build a newer kernel is usually OK. While
going the other way may not work as expected.
Also, I've noticed that your 'make silentconfig' aborted. You want to
take a closer look at that too. Try running 'make oldconfig' and see
what transpires.
Another point to consider is using a more recent kernel, as 3.4.52,
which was released back in 2013, may no longer be supported.

Seems like this is in fact the issue.
There's plenty of reports online of people compiling with the wrong
.config and getting that exact behaviour.

Eh, no. The kernel is 4.9.76, the current stable kernel of Gentoo. The
config has the same version and *genkernel* is version 3.4.52, the
current version in Gentoo.
I even tried 4.15.* before with the same result. I wonder in this
context when and if Gentoo does bring some fixes for i686 for Spectre
and Meltdown.

I would try these steps:
1. Download an upstream (not gentoo) 4.9.76 kernel source and unpack it.
2. Take the existing .config (from the failed genkernel attempt) and
copy it into the newly unpacked tree.
3. make silentoldconfig
4. make menuconfig just for verification; no changes should be necessary
5. build the kernel the normal upstream way (make vmlinuz or whatever)
If this works, it is a genkernel problem.
Myself, I stopped using gerkernel about 2 months into my gentoo life.
It doesn't really bring anything to the table worth the extra
complexity. Even if I were an initramfs user, I'd prefer dracut for
that part.

Ok, it seems to have sometimes very strange compile errors.
I just decided to start from scratch. after some steps, it failed to
compile grub. Now this grub even fail on a box where it worked before.
The strange thing is the following:
The error message is:
Can't locate Locale/Messages.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Locale::Messages module) (@INC contains: /usr/lib64/texinfo /usr/share/texinfo /usr/share/texinfo /etc/perl /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.24.3/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.24.3 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.24.3/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.24.3 /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/5.24.3/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib64/perl5/5.24.3 .) at /usr/bin/makeinfo line 109.
But(!):
perl -MLocale::gettext -e 'print "$Locale::gettext::VERSION\n";'
1.07
and:
find /usr -name gettext.pm
/usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.24.3/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/Locale/gettext.pm
Note that the same path is in @INC above.
That all is the current sync.
Grub to install would be sys-boot/grub-2.02:2/2.02::gentoo.
There seems to be something really strange going on but I do not have
any idea where to search.
Regards
Klaus

I recall there was a perl update recently. For good measure run:
perl-cleaner --reallyall
and then try running your remaining updates.

That did the trick; even for the kernel. However, I had to compile the
kernel with integrated firmware to skip this step in genkernel as
genkernel failed with firmware compiling.

I haven't used genkernel to be able to advise, but this page explains what you
need to do:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Intel_microcode
However, you may find it makes no difference. Intel have announced they will
not be bringing out updated microcode to address the GPZ vulnerabilities for
any of their older CPUs. This has given me one more reason to never buy Intel
again.

Greate, there is the hint. It need sys-kernel/genkernel >= 3.5.0.7 but
only 3.4.52.4-r2 is stable on gentoo.

Modern Intel CPUs are compromised by design:
https://blog.invisiblethings.org/2015/10/27/x86_harmful.html
Unfortunately AMD has also succumbed to similar proprietary and therefore
secret security mechanisms built within their CPUs. POWER9 CPUs do not suffer
from these afflictions and come with open source firmware, but a POWER9 system
will cost you a significant amount of money and it is designed for the server
market. For a typical budget constrained home user there is currently no
choice other than buying knowingly inferior and insecure hardware. :-(
