I have a four-core 64-bit Celeron box with 4GB RAM, on which I've just
installed a standard XFCE system on the desktop profile. It all went as
expected, but when I ran an emerge -e world at the end I had two failures:
both glibc and sandbox failed with the error in the subject line.
It's some years since I last saw this error, and I'm stuck. I've looked
through /etc hoping to find something skew-whiff, and I've compared the
environment with this box's, but nothing stands out.
Finally, following the hint in the portage output, I ran "FEATURES='-sandbox -
usersandbox' emerge -1 --color n sandbox". It made no discernible difference.
I've attached the logs etc from sandbox.
Has anyone a clue?

Regards.
