Thanks for the link, I have been through all the forums and what feels like most of the rest of the web looking for a solution. I have tried emerging it with gcc 3.2.3.3.3.4 - none work. If someone can point me to a good tutorial on unpacking / fixing / repacking an ebuild etc I might have a go at fixing the package. "C" is not my thing but I might end up having a go. I need XDirectFB to work. Either that or I'll just get the Xorg source and patch it with the latest XDirectFB cvs and make & install that & forget about using ebuilds for either - but I'd prefer to have a fixed ebuild. Thanks for the response.
