http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43177 in short, either use dlloader or don't use a hardened system.
OK, I'm trying to figure out how I came by a hardened system and to unharden it. I also have no clue as to how to use dlloader to solved this problem. I have read through most of the postings with respect to this error. I searched for components of the error to try and find a solution before posting but the search produced no usable results. In my /etc/make.conf file I have: CFLAGS="-o3 -mcpu=i686 -fomit-frame-pointer -march=pentium4 -pipe" CHOST="i686-px-linux-gnu" CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" MAKEOPTS="-j2" USE="-gtk -gnome" The /etc/make.profile link points to the gentoo distribution version as part of the file name. /etc/make.profile/make.defaults is stock. Nowhere is there a: -fpic flag. Thanks, John Hayes Thanks for the quick investigation. John Hayes
either add the word "dlloader" to your USE flags (with the understanding that this may break closed binary drivers), or else use gcc-config to select a non hardened compiler, and add "-hardened" to your USE flags. see also: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/hardened/hardenedxorg.xml
