 It freezes the system every single time I try to compile a cross tool

 Back to .31 and things seem to be moving better. Anyone else faced this?


I've noticed a few freezes during emerges on my system in the last week
or two.

The system is currently building x11-libs/qt-webkit-4.8.4 and has had a
series of freezes.

Portage: sys-apps/portage-2.1.11.31
Kernel: sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.4.9

dmesg produced an entry which may be related:
[ 8003.626681] hrtimer: interrupt took 4376464 ns

I haven't looked any further into the issue as yet, as I don't have the
time available.

While writing this email the system froze for 47 seconds with no new
kernel messages. :/

Regards,
Carlos

I downgraded to the stable version (.36) and all problems about emerge
freezing have seem to be gone.

I'm on ~amd64. Updated portage in the morning.

But it seems the .38 version has a nasty bug.

Back to .31 and things seem to be moving better. Anyone else faced this?
