I've pared down my system to a minimal state.
emerge --depclean returns no actions needed, but I think it may have
gotten a litte too exuberant.
revdep-rebuild wants to rebuild python but the emerge fails here:
>>> Source unpacked.
>>>
>>> Compiling source in
>>> /var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.5.1-r4/work/Python-2.5.1 .
..

I'm not finding this line `ebuild.sh 507' or even the file anywhere in
the build area or elsewhere for that matter.
Not able to devine any clues from:
/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.5.1-r4/temp/environment
either.
Its not at all clear where the * Call stack leads. At least not to
me. But apparently it has something to do with src_compile in the
ebuild.
Anyone recognize this kind of error?
