The only thing I can recommend is rebuilding system, and then rebuilding 
world to make sure everything is rebuilt using the same toolchain, 
including the toolchain itself.  Pretty much the same as installing from 
scratch though, but at least you won't have to configure everything again.

I suspect changing ACCEPT_KEYWORDS in the middle was not a good idea.
