This may help: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125728 I'm not
sure what changed but mine does not do this any more. I'm using
app-portage/gentoolkit-0.2.3-r1 at the moment.

Thanks Dale,
After a little thought and some investigation I'd already come up with the
symlink solution on my own. However I do find it a little disturbing that
this is exactly the same, as a bug that has a creation date of: 2006-03-10,
nearly two years ago. I also know that I didn't have this problem until a
recent new "stable" version of gcc was merged. That means somebody is
re-introducing bugs that have already been fixed. Making such easily
avoidable mistakes does not bode well...
Thanks Again,

It has been around for a while but I don't think it actually breaks
anything. I have never had a problem with my system and it did that for
ages.
My workaround has always been to just oneshot everything but gcc and
then rerun revdep-rebuild -i -p again to make sure the other problems
were fixed. Of course, it would be good if it worked to begin with.
Then again, I would rather a bug that breaks something be fixed first
too. o_O
I have gcc-4.1.2 installed here and I do not get that error. It is
masked but no problems for me so far. Could it be that specific version
of gcc you have maybe? Maybe someone else can chime in on what version
they have and if they get that error or not.
Glad to have helped.
