Try upgrading pax-utils to app-misc/pax-utils-0.1.11



Thanks Mike,

I solved this just before your email came in. scanelf was having difficulty reading /proc and upon examination I found my fstab had the chroot proc mount bind-ed to /proc rather than mounted as type proc. A dumb mistake - but the interesting thing is that I haven't changed this fstab for months - so perhaps something (2.6.16 kernel?) has got more stricter about handling that sort of error.

At least I got to play with strace, peer inside scanelf and pull things apart a bit - one of the beauties of gentoo.

Thanks for the reply,

Will.
