        From all of the above, I think the important part is that I need to
install some "glibc developement files". A google search doesn't point me

the direction of what these might be. According to "eix glibc", I have
debug
turned OFF - is this the problem?

The part about the "glibc development [sic] files" is mostly a red herring.
I'm not sure where it's coming from (I can't find that misspelling of
development in the portage source or any eclass, and it's not part of the
actual ebuild.)

I got an email directly from the maintainer pointing me to something in the gentoo bugs db,

https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=444020#c6

which basically says there was something wrong and re-emerging glibc will fix the problem. I did this then ran my "emerge -NuD world". Lo & behold, V5 of the compiler was installed, not the V4.?? that I was having trouble with, and installed cleanly. As V5 is now there, I can't be bothered checking on the V4 problem.

        Thanks for the comments,
                Andrew
