Hi @ll |

Mea culpa ! I added "multilib" as a useflag to the portage ebuild |
| 4 |
without recognizing that it was yet only a local useflag (in gcc). |

Mr_Bones_ and ciaranm were so kind to point me to it and convinced me to |
| 6 |
tell you all, thx guys ;-). Here we go: |

So what's multilib ? At the moment it's an amd64 only global useflag, |
| 9 |
but probably other 64bit archs which can execute and compile 32bit |
| 10 |
binary will consider it usable too. |

|

"+multilib" allows gcc to build x86 binarys on amd64 and makes portage |
| 13 |
build a 32bit libsandbox.so. This 32bit sandbox [1] is necessary to |
| 14 |
install some precompiled applications on amd64. (Example: Openoffice-bin |
