which downgraded everything back to stable. But one thing I couldn't
downgrade was glibc which stayed at version

XTerm is not using my ~/.Xresources settings.
Is there any way I can possibly fix my system?

Is there any hope for me, or should I reinstall Gentoo from scratch,

I'm sceptical that will produce any different result than I have,
because I'll probably do everything exactly as I did now.

How about running tcpdump on your outgoing ethernet interface while
