Hello, Gentoo.
Would somebody help me here, please.
When I try to emerge glibc-2.33-r1, the very first phase of the build
crashes out with:
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -O2 -pipe -march=native -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed
glibc-test.c -o glibc-test

What is clearly happening is that the C Compiler is crashing out with a
segfault. I actually have CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION in my kernel config.
I've tried this with both GCC-10.3.0 and GCC-9.3.0 with the same results
on both.
What is going wrong? (Horrible thought - maybe my RAM is failing.)
