Hi Marek, first of all: Good luck with your Masters :)
I have uploaded a new gap revision which includes a patch that could solve your problem. Please make sure you have gap-4.4.12-r1 emerged and check if it starts up properly (with and/or without -m 32 ... etc). If it does not work, we would like to know the output of "uname -a" and "emerge --info".
