I seem to have munged something pretty spectacularly. A system that
updates itself every couple of weeks, using a current portage tree,
recently began emitting this error when running 'emerge -uD system':
!!! ERROR: sys-libs/glibc-2.4-r3 failed.
Call stack:
ebuild.sh, line 1562: Called dyn_setup
ebuild.sh, line 665: Called pkg_setup
glibc-2.4-r3.ebuild, line 1079: Called die
!!! please add USE='nptl nptlonly' to make.conf
Obediently, albeit with trepidation, I added nptl and nptlonly to my USE
flags and restarted the emerge. The immediate result was a complaint
that CHOST was incorrect, and that <= i686 was required. Indeed, I
found that CHOST="i386-pc-linux-gnu", and corrected it to be
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu". I then re-ran the emerge, resulting in this:
configure: error:
*** These critical programs are missing or too old: gcc
*** Check the INSTALL file for required versions.
!!! ERROR: sys-libs/glibc-2.4-r3 failed.
Call stack:
ebuild.sh, line 1546: Called dyn_compile
ebuild.sh, line 937: Called src_compile
glibc-2.4-r3.ebuild, line 1179: Called toolchain-glibc_src_compile
glibc-2.4-r3.ebuild, line 251: Called glibc_do_configure 'nptl'
glibc-2.4-r3.ebuild, line 941: Called die
!!! failed to configure glibc
In a hamfisted attempt to resolve the problem, I decided to try 'emerge
- -e system', which begot the same error. In desperation, I tried to
re-bootstrap, and have now received this rude expletive:

If it is not yet apparent to anyone how I've got myself into this
pickle, please let me know what other information I can provide.
