I have run into the same xgcc failure when trying to upgrade from gcc-3.4.3-20050110 to gcc-3.4.4. There is a bug report for the problem that I tagged my report into:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=95212 This has stopped me from upgrading to the 3.4.4 release. The problem probably has to do with the fact that I am still running 2004.3 profile, not the recent 2005.0 or .1 profile. I hope someone recognizes the problem and can supply a fix.

I was trying to solve this annoying little problem: http://www.mail-archive.com/gentoo-hardened@lists.gentoo.org/msg00029.html (btw this is a 2004.1 selinux profile - selinux in permissive mode so it shouldn't interfere) The solution advised above was to upgrade portage + sandbox, but when I tried to do so (after unmasking the latest portage&sandbox packages), portage complained that I had problems with my multilib setup. So I thought I'd try to re-emerge the current portage (as a test), but it didn't get very far either. I then thought I'd try to rebuild gcc and glibc but gcc is clearly broken (glibc built fine): checking for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc... /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.4.3-r1/work/build/gcc/xgcc -B/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.4.3-r1/work/build/gcc/ -B/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ -B/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/lib/ -isystem /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/include -isystem /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/sys-include -m32 checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs. If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'. See `config.log' for more details. make[1]: *** [configure-target-libstdc++-v3] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.4.3-r1/work/build' make: *** [profiledbootstrap] Error 2 !!! ERROR: sys-devel/gcc-3.4.3-r1 failed. !!! Function gcc_do_make, Line 1205, Exitcode 2 !!! emake failed with profiledbootstrap !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message. I am certain the kernel has support for 32bit emulation (I even compiled a hello-world program with gcc +/- -m32 to check it), so what is this all about and how do I get out of this mess? Help!
