First thing I do when I have a problem with one of the larger apps,
Firefox, Thunderbird, LibreOffice is enable the make feature, in
make.conf, that keeps temp files around:
FEATURES="ccache keeptemp keepwork candy"
and then set the make options so that only one thread is doing stuff:
MAKEOPTS="-j1"
I just sometimes find that the build system gets a bit confused, with
multiple threads, and the one thread "straightens" things out.
But then again, this might be a bug and I have no idea as to what I'm
talking about.....
