Thanks for you response. It pointed me towards an answer. In fact, my
CFLAGS were fine (anyway, I checked the avifile ebuild and it does not
take the flags into account). I edited avifile configure script, and
it appears it was looking for i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++, I looked up g++
and it lied in a directory called i586-pc-linux-gnu, so I went into my
make.conf and changed the 6 to a 5 in my host variable. It works now,
although I don't really understand why. Do you have any clue as to
what happened ? Why are all the other apps comiling alright ?
Thanks again,
Jonathan
