22 This may help: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125728 I'm not
23 sure what changed but mine does not do this any more. I'm using
24 app-portage/gentoolkit-0.2.3-r1 at the moment.

31 Thanks Dale,

33 After a little thought and some investigation I'd already come up with the
34 symlink solution on my own. However I do find it a little disturbing that
35 this is exactly the same, as a bug that has a creation date of: 2006-03-10,
36 nearly two years ago. I also know that I didn't have this problem until a
37 recent new "stable" version of gcc was merged. That means somebody is
38 re-introducing bugs that have already been fixed. Making such easily
39 avoidable mistakes does not bode well...
