Hi

I am experiencing difficulties with downgrading glibc from 2.12.1-r2 to 
2.11.2-r3 on Gentoo.
The reason for this is my system (2.6.36 kernel) refuses to boot with 2.12.1-r2.

I reloaded using LiveCD, downloaded tinderbox-created 2.11.2-r3.tbz2, unpacked 
it over and managed to boot fine.
Now I am trying to downgrade glibc more or less "legally" using paludis/cave.

It builds fine, but fails while merging with:
