Note, my experiences and instructions are specific to amd64 boxes. I
don't know if other boxes are affected, and the workaround I'm writing
below is not appropriate for anything but amd64.
Incidentally, you'll know if your box got bit if you do a large set of
emerges which include building glibc, and everything after glibc's
'Install' phase fails. Don't trust emerge's output; at this point,
bash is segfaulting on startup, which makes emerge utterly unreliable,
even as it tries to tell you the cause for errors.
DO NOT close your open shells; you won't be able to launch bash until
you've fixed this.
To work around, you'll need a root shell. If you have any shell at
all, you should be able to get a root shell by running
sudo busybox sh
in any of your remaining shells which have sudoer access.
grab
glibc-2.14.1-r3.tbz2
from
http://packages.gentooexperimental.org/packages/amd64-unstable/sys-libs/
using wget. At least in my situation, wget still worked. Move the
tarball to your / directory:
mv glibc-2.14.1-r3.tbz2 /
and unpack it
tar xvjpf glibc-2.14.1-r3.tbz2
You should now have bash back, which means you'll have emerge back,
and probably the rest of your system.
