 Well, seems it isn't. These are the two memory-intensive packages in the
 list.

As Alan says, if you are using bad RAM you're playing a rather deterministic 
game.  When, not if, the hole in your memory is met by a running process the 
output will go sideways.

If you don't want to return the memory back and get a new module, then you 
could try the badmem or badram patches.  I would recommend you get new memory, 
but either of these patches may bring a quicker result and at least confirm 
that the faulty memory caused the emerge failures.

Could you please stop posting messages that don't actually contain any 
information but only complaints?

 #1; long standing failure related to custom container classes.

No context, no error message, not understandable.

 #2,   /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6: error adding symbols: DSO missing from
 command line

The full command line and error message please, otherwise it didn't happen. 
(*Which* symbols are missing?)

[Same for some other items.]

 #8,#16; INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR!! (recently RMA'd some RAM, new ram
