It's a mistake from the maintainer of the tiff ebuild.  For some reason 
he thought that an Objective C compiler is needed to build 
media-libs/tiff.  It's been masked now by the maintainer.  If you don't 
want to wait for mirrors to pick up the mask and do "emerge --sync" 
again, please mask this version until the mistake is fixed:

   echo "=media-libs/tiff-3.8.2-r6" >> /etc/portage/package.mask

See http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=274092 for details and put 
your email address to the CC list so you'll be notified of changed to 
this problem.
