Interesting.  xdvik I don't have merged, but I do timidity.  I checked how
long ago I merged it and it appeared to have been with gcc-4.0.2, back in
January, so I remerged and it went just fine with gcc-4.1.1.

However, it looks like you were using 2.13.2 while I have 2.13.2-r2 merged
here (since January).  I see this entry in the changelog:

  26 Jun 2005; Mark Loeser <halcy0n@g.o>
  +files/timidity++-2.13.2-gcc4.patch, timidity++-2.13.2-r2.ebuild:
  GCC4 patch, thanks to <sunmoon1997@×××××.com> for the patch; bug #89933

Thus, it would appear you need -r2 to compile with gcc4.

$earch timidity++
timidity++-2.13.2[0]: amd64 arm hppa ppc sparc x86
timidity++-2.13.2-r2[0]: ~amd64 ~arm ~ppc ppc64 ~sparc ~x86

So... -r2 is still keyworded unstable.  With gcc-4.1.1 now stable, that's
a bug.  A quick look to see if it's already filed reveals:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=145669

If you are running a mostly stable amd64 system, try adding this specific
version to package.keywords as ~amd64.  If it then merges fine, test it
and be sure it works, then add amd64@g.o to the CC list for the bug
above, and add a note saying you've confirmed that it does indeed merge
and work on amd64 stable.  That should get it stabilized fairly fast,
unless Gentoo sound team itself has issues with it going stable, and I
don't see any listed and it's already stable for ppc64.

It seems fine on ~amd64 here, but that's of course not the same as saying
it's fine on stable, so your specific statement to that effect would be
helpful.  Don't forget to add your emerge --info too, so they know what
USE flags you use.
