Fair enough. There are some errors that the Gentoo system collects and says something about. and at 3am I was needing to get some sleep and knew that I might not get to this any time soon. I'm running gcc (Gentoo 4.6.3 p1.6, pie-0.5.2). I could update to 4.7.2 if that is recommended.
BTW, I finally got linuxcnc built and installed, but it does not run yet. I'll post the ebuild in a moment so that others can take a poke at it. It is unlikely that I will be able to get back to poking at this for days if not many weeks.
