Thank you for your reply.

Initially, I understood the above recomendation as the suggestion to
rebuild the packages mentioned above with different use flags.

Do you think that rebuilding them with the same use flags may help?

The said problem appeared just since the intallation of the new
Gentoo system in January-February 2018 and not since changing
the major version of gcc this spring.

P.S. clang is not installed on my Gentoo system at all.
