6 Daid, thanks for your input. I keep an extra line of 'safe' cflags
7 commented out, which saved the day in this case.

9 If it helps anyone, here's what the [continuing] problem was:
10
11 When I figured out that I was using the wrong march, I switched it
12 out, but forgot to look over the cflags, which still contained -msse3.
13 Hence some improvement but not a total fix. I was thinking of giving
14 my safe cflags a go, when, looking at them and at my regular cflags, I
15 realized that -msse3 didn't belong. Fixed it, emerge -uDNe world, and
16 now emerge --sync works!
17
18 Based on this experience, I would submit that if you're running Gentoo
19 and seeing SIGILL, double checking your march and your cflags would be
20 a pretty good place to start.
