I didn't have the audit stuff installed BUT it was turned on in the
kernel.  I kicked that out and also got rid of all that cgroup stuff I
don't have any need for.  Rebooted then tried your list.  Audit stuff,
gone. Sync is maybe a couple days old so should be OK.  Portage is up to
date.  Python as follows:

dev-lang/python-2.7.6
dev-lang/python-3.3.3

localhost ~ # eselect python list
Available Python interpreters:
  [1]   python2.7 *
  [2]   python3.3
localhost ~ #

Updated linux-headers.  It was a little out of sync with kernel
version.  After all that, I get this:

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

So, the locale junk is gone but glibc is still not liking something. 
Where did I put that hammer the last time I used it??  ;-) 

Ideas?  I'm pretty much out of them right now.  My idea is the hammer.
