Re: [gentoo-user] Just a heads-up, I think =sys-libs/glibc-2.14.1-r3 is a stinker.

Ok, yes. This version of glibc, =sys-libs/glibc-2.14.1-r3, is crud. At
least, if you're doing parallel building. Out of my three machines,
the 8-core box got bit by it, the 4-core box got bit by it, but the
2-core laptop sailed past.

I have a hunch that setting MAKEOPTS="-j1" will fix it for me, and I'm
letting that run as I head off to sleep in a few minutes.
