I haven't heard of this, probably because I haven't done much lately.
Assuming you're using an n32 system (multilib or otherwise) this isn't
correct.

I'm looking at baselayout-2.1.ebuild, and I think the problem is that
I don't have SYMLINK_LIB="no" in the mips profiles.

Relevant: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=355283#c4

I'll update those profiles. emerge --sync in an hour or two and let me
know if the problem goes away.

Thanks,
Matt
