48 Tried switching to python 2.7 but got the same error.

50 The line of the error in isolated-functions.sh is calling a function
51 __eapi_has_nonfatal. That is defined in eapi.sh and checks if ${EAPI} !=
52 0, 1, 2 or 3, which effectively leave 4 or 5.
53
54 It seems that the glibc ebuild is EAPI 0 (from
55 /var/db/pkg/sys-libs/glibc-2.19-r1/EAPI).
56
57 So I guess that the error means that it tried to run the
58 glibc_compile_test and failed for the binary install, so emerge tried to
59 raise a nonfatal error, but that wasn't supported by the EAPI and that
60 caused the emerge to die.
61
62 I wonder if setting EAPI=5 in the ebuild file will help, of if that
63 would just cause other problems... I might try that later when I have
64 some time...
