This is a bug with using a hardened gcc/glibc combo. There are two solutions to this problem. The first is to patch Xorg source to add the '-norun' flag (this is from memory, may not be the right word). Or you can remove the hardened USE flag, and re-merge gcc, glibc, and then Xorg. I'll be honest, I took the easier route and re-merged without -hardened. I encountered this same problem on my primary work machine and needed to get it back up fast. This has to do with when functions are looked up in shared libraries. Without -hardened, gcc/glibc does 'lazy lookups'. When you use -hardened, all symbols are looked up at initial execution, thus inconsistencies are found. hth, Cooper. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
